NoPistons -Mazda Rx7 & Rx8 Rotary Forum - Rotary Only Autocross School

This would be in conjunction with Evolution Driving School and you would get lots of seat time and lots of instruction.

I would like to do a shortened Phase 1 school and then open up a course layout for fun runs for the rest of the day. So the School would be from 8 a.m. till about 1 p.m. then anyone could run their car for a small fee. This way other can come out and watch the end of the school then get to try out an Autocross in their own car.

Spread the word and post up here if you want in.

<span style='font-size:17pt;line-height:100%'>Saturday April 3rd is the date of the Rotary only Evolution driving School</span>

So here is all the info I can pass on for now

Cost: $50 -Prefer it paid in advance.

There will be 3 run groups

8-10 a.m.

10 a.m - 12 p.m.

12-2 p.m.

2-5 p.m. will be fun runs for anybody there that wants to run some more or any others that are not in the school and just want to run their cars.

I am laying out the $1500 for this event I will be collecting the cost of the event. I will not profit from this in any way. $50 x 30 drivers = $1500. If we are under 30 drivers good news for you as it equates to more seat time - bad news for me more money out of my pocket.

Here is directions to the site.

Lake County Technical School

13000 Frankies Rd

Tavares, FL

Directions to Site

**EDIT**

The driving directions given at Yahoo maps leave a lot to be desired. I am more a visual driver when it come to directions. I will draw a map soon and post it. I almost got lost heading up there this past weekend.

As far as written directions go these from the Martin Sports Car Club are good.
