Our Taste of the Track program format has been changed. It now will be incorporated into the actual DE event and is specifically designed to give the driver an opportunity to taste what it is like to be a first time novice driver at one of our Driver Education events. This will be available for both our Mid Ohio DE events which are April 13th-14th and October 12th-13th, 2013.
Drivers participating will be a part of the event’s novice group and go through the same registration, car safety inspection, driver’s meeting, initial novice group classroom session then drive their car with an instructor in the group’s first on-track session. This session is basically a track orientation without helmets. The instructor initially drives the student’s car, showing them the proper line around the track while pointing out the turn-in, apex, track-out marker cones, flag stations, and a demonstration of threshold braking for a couple of laps before changing seats with the student. All this for the same $25.00. However, you must preregister and attend the required meetings to be allowed to participate in the on-track session.
The initial registration is done online at www.clubregistration.net. You will need to set-up a personal profile, including brief info about your car, in order to register. Payment should be made on-line via credit card. If you need help, or, have questions, send an e mail to the Event Registrar Dennis Okin at dennisokin@fuse.net. As all Taste of the Track activities take place beginning 7:00 am Saturday morning of the DE, you may want to drive to the Lexington, OH area on Friday night. Event hotel information will be provided to you, along with your confirmation, once you have registered and paid for Taste. Contact Jerry Wolf at jwolf5@cinci.rr.com for more information.
