Alrighty folks. Here is the registration form for the Thunderhill Driving School at Thunderhill Raceway on July 29, 2005. This event is being hosted by TrackMasters Racing and this event will be $250.00. This fee is NON-REFUNDABLE.
This fee includes all day instruction and lunch w/drinks. Extra lunches can be bought for $8.00 for your guests. There are restroom facilities and snack bar facilities available at the track. Thunderhill T-shirts will be for sale at the track.
Guests are NOT allowed in the car during instruction. There MAY be a parade lap available during lunch time at a very low speed to allow your guests to at least see what the track is like. Please feel free to encourage your guests to bring cameras/video to capture the day!
Please fill out this form and send it with a check or money order payaple to:
The Throttle Stop
3504 Apollo Circle
Roseville, CA 95661
There are 3 run groups at this event:
A-Advanced
B-Intermediate
C-Novice
If you have no driving experience whatsoever on a track, it is highly recommended that you register yourself in Category C. For those of you who do have experience, please use common sense and place yourself in B or C, which ever you feel is appropriate. Category A drivers drive by themselves, without an instructor. B&C drivers will have an instructor with them at ALL TIMES.
Please do your best to get this form/payment mailed by the Convention registration deadline of March 1, 2005. This allows us enought time to set things up and make sure that everyone gets their money's worth.
Below the registration link is the Tech Inspection sheet. This must be filled out and you must have it with you the day of the event. If your car does not pass, it does NOT DRIVE. Please take care of everything ahead of time to make sure that your Mach is in working order. I highly recommend that you bring a small took kit for any basic maintenance that might need to be done....tire iron/sockets/wrenches, etc. Track prep will be available at the Throttle Stop the day before the event.

Tech Inspection Sheet
A helmet IS REQUIRED for this event. Helmets must be Snell SA95, M95, K98, SA2000, or M2000 rated. Helmets must also be free of cracks and other visible damage. If you do not have a helmet Thunderhill will have a limited number of helmets available for rent for $25.00
Folks I guarantee that this driving school will be a blast! I must stress to you that this is not a RACING SCHOOL, this is a driving school that teaches you how to be a better driver....on and off the course. Some of things that are covered are:
1. Understeer/Oversteer-causes and solutions
2. Line of sight/seeing "through the turn"
3. Settling the chassis/setting up for a turn/braking
4. Overall awareness of your car and how it reacts to various conditions
The list goes on and on. You will be paired up with an instructor and run the course for a certain amount of time. During that time the instructor will advise you on certain things, make suggestions, etc etc. Afterwards, you will go back into the building with your group for a "download" in which you go over what just happened....mistakes, questions, accomplisments, etc. From there you go back out to your car and wait to make another run. We'll break for lunch and then go back out and do it again!
All of the skills you will learn at this course WILL give you the tools needed to be a better driver. All of these things can be used in everyday driving to make you safer and to improve your overall driving experience....whether it be on the loop, or cruising on the highway.
To put things into perspective....the last time I went this course, we had everything under the sun show up.........from full size chevy pickups, minivans, to Ferrari 360 Modenas and Porches......and everything in between. That goes to show that this school is for everyone, not just racers or corner carvers!!!
