2010 was all about trying to get as much seat time as possible to improve in the shortest amount of time so when the Evolution Performance Driving School (
http://www.evoschool.com) offered a Phase 2 school at the Meadowlands, I was quick to sign up. I was lucky enough to have Mike "Junior" Johnson and John Winchester as my instructors and they really helped me learn a lot that day. Phase 2 is the natural progression from Phase 1 is all about cutting the course into manageable sections, coming up with a game plan, car placement and of course more looking ahead. The really tight sections of a Phase 2 course are super annoying especially in a zero torque car like an AP1 but it's a really good way to learn about patience and the effect of too much speed on understeer.

Evo schools are really the most cost effective way to get better faster quickly and I hope to take Phase 2 again in the future as a refresher. Seat time is very valuable and if you can get critical feedback from better drivers at the same time and apply those effectively into your driving then it's a sure fire way to cut down on driver development time. Oh, and I added a Modifry camera mount (
