So after 8 fun seasons the chair of our region decided it was time to make me an instructor. This year has been about driving other people's cars and riding with them (IMG:style_emoticons/default/piratenanner.gif) . Today was our anual autocross school and my first official day as an instructor. It was a blast teaching people tips and tricks to help them. I had a student that drove a nice 500hp 996 TT and she ended up beating her husband when the day was over (IMG:style_emoticons/default/aktion035.gif) . I only drove it once to show her the line but the TT is a monster.

(IMG:style_emoticons/default/beerchug.gif) to many more fun days of autocrossing (IMG:style_emoticons/default/piratenanner.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/driving.gif)

Congrats, there is nothing better then exposing someone to the world of autocross while teaching them "good" habbits & seeing them excel as long as they are not beating in you in your class (IMG:style_emoticons/default/driving.gif)

If they beat you in your class you just need to drive faster (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beerchug.gif)

JP, at a school or fun runs it is generally different as they get so many runs. Plus, it is good to drive their car 75% of your pace and talk them through it. My students really like that and dropped a ton of time after that. Plus I think it helps seeing what your car can really do.

Tom, anytime my friend (IMG:style_emoticons/default/aktion035.gif)
