I instructed at the 2009 Blue Ridge Region novice school held at the Motormile Speedway in Radford, VA. I worked with two students, James and Doug who drove a '05 STi and a Forester XT, both prepped for the STU class.
Doug is on the left, while James is to the right of the picture.
Doug made some stellar improvement and really whipped that wagon around the course on a less-than-ideal set-up. I was impressed especially since this was his 4th event ever!!!
James had 1 season under his belt, but really seemed to soak up the advice I was giving him. Very fast learner who also showed tremendous improvement! He also has a car that's just a few tweaks away from being very competitive for the class.
The instructors got a test-n-tune session at the end of the day, and James let me drive his STi.
