Default ESPN Russell Racing School at Pac.Raceway<-Check This OUT!

Attention: Corvette Owners

The ESPN Russell Racing School has just created the first and only
nationwide performance driving tour, to teach you to drive YOUR car on
some of the most famous race courses across the country. I thought this
might be of interest to your group. The next event is at Pacific
Raceway, in Seattle, on September 9th.

Our Performance Driving Courses give you TONS OF TRACK TIME in OPEN
LAPPING SESSIONS with ONE-ON-ONE IN-CAR INSTRUCTION from Jim Russells
core of race-seasoned professional instructors. We also have A, B and C
groups for all skill levels, making this experience both fun and safe
for either novice or pro!

The day begins with a short orientation session and a track drive. For
the first few laps, the ESPN Russell Racing instructor will drive
pointing out the breaking lines, proper passing zones and how to read
the track. You will then switch seats, and benefit from the experienced
feedback and coaching that have made our instructors famous. Amongst
other things, you will learn cornering, heel and toe shifting
techniques, racetrack line theory, and how to maximize your cars
performance.

The retail price of this event is $495. However, because we would
really like to get Corvette owners out on the track, I would like to
invite you to join us for only $350!! That cost includes an entire day
at the track, professional instruction, snacks, a catered lunch, the
chance to win over $3000 in prizes and awards, and all of the necessary
safety equipment that you will need! For additional information, please
visit our website at www.ESPNrussellracing.com, or feel free to call me
with any questions, (323) 528-2352.


Thank you so much and have a wonderful day today!



-Debbi



P.S. We will also be visiting Willow Springs, Watkins Glen, California
Speedway and Mont Tremblant, to mention a few.

Any chance of your coming out to Infineon (my local track) and if so, are rollbars required in convertibles? I also have hardtops if they are.

To bad that's on a Thursday. That's just as bad as the Skidmarque club doing a track day on a Tuesday.

Did the performance driving day with Russell about 18 months ago at Infineon when I first took my car on a track. Great experience and much more focused instruction than just going to a DE and picking up an instructor, very glad I did it at that time. Plan to do it again down at Cal Speedway but getting the car 400 miles takes some planning, too bad I don't have a Corvette in all those places. Any rental's available?
