CARS is pleased to announce that we will be hosting our Driving School #3 & our and Time Attack event this Sunday August 5 at the Arima Race Club car park.
Mr. Devi Nath, a well respected Solodex driver and Honorary CARS member for the past 10 years, will cover the basics about car set up, as this was a topic of interest among the group.
The intent of our driving school is to demonstrate to our new drivers the proper technique involved at Solodex. Anyone who may be interested in learning proper race technique can attend the driving school and participate in the practical session after. Similar to our previous Driving School sessions, the day will be split into classroom sessions followed by Q&A, Practicals, Open Course runs and official timed runs.
In the afternoon portion of the event we'll have some more excitement for both drivers and spectators with our Solodex Time Attack. We'll be using the Drag & Wind course where two mirror courses will be set up and two drivers will be able to simultaneously race, side by side. So to you D&W'ers out there, this is an excellent opportunity to practice, without hitting barriers this time! Racing side by side with another driver adds extra adrenaline and this also presents a great opportunity to develop your concentration and discipline for Solodex, since overly-enthusiastic driving may actually hamper your time.
