I hear a lot of discussion about driving schools on this list; e.g.
"you should spend money on skills, not JUST mods",
"a skilled driver can be happy and safe without ABS",
"my grandmother is a racer and she can outbrake your ABS", etc...

SO, at the risk of asking a FAQ, can someone recommend a good
school/program/workshop?
( This IS rec.autocross, right?  :) )

I am living in the Bay Area (California) right now, but will be moving to
Illinois in a couple of months (Champaign-Urbana).

Any schools, addresses, books, or info would be greatly appreciated!

Indianapolis has several race tracks in addition to that one
that everyone talks about. SCCA and independents run race schools
on a regular basis out at Indianapolis Raceway Park. Some are
run what you "brung," others have Spec. Racers.

Next year, you'll be closer to Indy for "Miatas at Indy '94"
Details will be in the fall Miata Mag. Pull out your Daytimers
and pencil in June 11-13.
