If you want to, if you have ever wished to, if you ever desire to absolutely know what your MINI was meant to do… Unleash the beast at the Evolution Driving School.

Expert instructors applying just enough slap on the head to make those think about what they could be doing that and may need to be corrected for competition type drivers along with enough sheer intimidation to make non racers want to get on the Formula 1 circuit next week. These people are great.

A highly technical and disciplined driving school, but at the same time casual enough event to have you biting your nails for your next go at the course to improve your time pushing your MINI to the maximum.

Without anymore hands, I can’t give them more than two thumbs up.

You can find Evolution at http://www.autocross.com/evolution

I had a fantastic day of instruction with them this weekend and feel prepared and confident for my first race of my novice season this next weekend.

Unfortunately, if you are in the East I think you are out of luck for this year. D.C. and Boston are reportedly sold out.

I have been through Phase 1 twice, and Phase 2 once. Enjoyed it and learned a lot each time. I have been closing the gap between the instructors and my times though, last time beating both for most runs. So I need to go on the Phase 3 and more to get more ideas and improvements.

Highly recommend before any other car mod that you attend a driving school. Best way to improve your performance is to work on the loose nut behind the wheel.
