Bay Area: Doc Wong's Driving Clinic -- Aug 5th

I'm planning on going to Doc Wong's driving clinic this Saturday morning. I've been twice before, and it's a blast to drive through the mountains with a bunch of other sports cars. The drive starts in Redwood City and journeys through the Santa Cruz mountains on some exciting (and most of the time, less traffic-y) roads. Both times I've been the only rotary there, and I'm hoping to increase that number this month :-) Best of all, it's free!

Here's a previous thread about it.

Check it out!

I hope to see some more rotaries there :-)

Yep, you take the San Mateo Bridge to the Peninsula, then 101 South to 84 West. Then the meeting place is about 3 miles down 84 on the left.

For the people actually planning on going to the clinic, here's a reminder that it's happening tomorrow morning at 9am. I hope to see some of you there.

Here's a Google Maps link showing you the meeting point. You can get directions from there.

I'm not going to be able to make this one, but I'm interested in next one. Have a little fun on the weekend before classes start

Plus, heel+toe is something I need to learn how to do (never had an FC where I had the room to do it until now), especially if I start doing track days.

reminder that skyline is being patrolled now by police since the recent accidents, be careful those who go out there.

The talk this month is on lines of travel. Thanks for the heads-up, Karack. Luckily we won't be driving on Skyline at all :-)

Heard from a friend that some overzealous RX8 driver rolled his car while tailing a Z33.
