Driver Ed
November 8-9, 2008
The mission and purpose of the Dark Side Driver Ed program is to provide a safe, structured and controlled teaching and learning environment. The program is designed for participants to improve their driving abilities and acquire a better understanding of vehicle dynamics and driving safety. Participants will experience first-hand the capabilities of high performance automobiles in a controlled, closed-course environment and acquire skills that will enhance safer vehicle operation in all driving situations. Dark Side Driver Ed events are not racing, preparation for racing, nor a competition of any kind. No times or placings are recorded and no awards or prizes are received by the participants. Any conduct considered to be either unsafe or inconsistent with the spirit or purpose of the Driver Education Program will not be permitted.
