"DRIVER'S EDGE"® SCHOOL....5/22...Performance Driving Instruction at it's BEST

MBCA Southern Stars Motorsports presents....
The "DRIVER'S EDGE"® SCHOOL....LEARNING TO DRIVE TO THE LIMITS OF YOUR CAR
SATURDAY, MAY 22, 8 AM, JACKSONVILLE AREA, FL (midway between Jax and Brunswick GA)
In the Driver's Edge school you will learn what you and your car are capable of in a controlled,
safe environment; learn to REact, not OVERreact..........improve your driving skills, be
prepared....
handle emergencies - confidence building - defensive driving - get a competitive edge - learn your
car's limits - performance driving - car control - better handling - looking ahead - make
corrections - learn not to panic - accident avoidance - build on existing skills
A course is laid out using soft pylons. The course is divided into segments and each section is
electronically monitored. There is very little "down time", which makes it quite intensive. It is a
terrific learning experience for any driver, young or old.
Parents, this would be a great event for your teenage driver. (must be 16 yrs. or older and have a
valid driver's license) What a great way to make them safer on the road and have so much fun
learning.
Each school is limited to only 12 students. With 2 instructors, there is always one available for
you, either riding as a passenger, driving with you as a passenger or you driving alone with them
observing your driving from the outside.
Before starting, there is a drivers meeting with a short instructional talk . There will be a break
where all the students get to look over their segment computer printouts and have open discussions
with each other and the instructors about what they might do differently and see what areas need
improvement. There's more discussion during lunch and before ending the school, there is another
meeting to discuss the session as a whole.
All drivers must wear an approved Snell 2000 helmet. Some loaners will be available
All drivers and guests must sign an insurance waiver.
This is an intensive course, with very little downtime.
I STRONGLY recommend that you bring sunglasses, a hat, sunscreen, bug repellant, raingear, umbrella
(for sun or rain) and, if possible, a chair.

DEADLINE: Register and PAY for the 5/22 the School by 5/1(Schools fill quickly, register early. We
