AutoX #2 at Maywood Park - Sunday May 18th - Register NOW
5/9/2008Come out to the Second AutoX of the season at Maywood Park on Sunday May 18th.
Blackhawk Farms Driver's School Registration is now OPEN
5/5/2008It's that time of year again, The Annual Blackhawk Farms ACCCC Driver's School and Safety Seminar is right around the corner. The event will be held at the beautiful Blackhawk Farms Raceway (www.blackhawkfarms.com) in South Beloit, Illinois on June 20th, 21st, & 22nd.
On Friday the 20th, the Club will be hosting an advanced Driver's day for our advanced drivers and an Instructor Clinic those experienced drivers who aspire to become club instructors. The event will only be open to a limited number of cars and given the inquiries so far we expect to sell out quickly so sign up right away! Experienced Audi members and potential instructors MUST contact Mike Witbrod for eligibility and approval prior to registration.
What is an Advanced Driver Day and who should consider attending?
Advanced drivers are typically Club Instructors or very long time members with significant track experience. These individuals are very familiar with the Club's philosophies and practices - especially when it comes to safety and courtesy on the track. The day will consist of sessions alternating between the Advanced Drivers and the Instructor Clinic participants.
What is an Instructor Clinic and who should consider attending?
Instructor Clinics are for advanced drivers who would like to become more involved in the clubs by training to become Club Instructors. The clinic consists of both classroom and on-track activities. In the classroom, senior instructors will discuss some of the basics about being an instructor. The focus is on safety and some 'how-to' tips about relating to, and teaching, different types of students with different skill sets. Instructors-in-training will learn how to coordinate and critique the student exercises during the driving schools. The group will then be getting into the cars for some one-on-one coaching and student / instructor role-playing.
The Instructor Clinics give the club an opportunity to get to know the potential instructors. The club realizes that it is important to groom the next generation of instructors and part of the 'getting to know you' process is to evaluate skills and help to identify areas of development. Attendance at an Instructor Clinic does not automatically qualify you to be an instructor at future events.
There will be a very limited number of Instructor Clinic spots available this year. Potential participants are encouraged to forward a Driver's Resume or driving history to Mike Witbrod for consideration.
Saturday and Sunday:
For those who have never attended our Driver's Schools I can assure you that you will not be disappointed. You will be surrounded by fellow Audi enthusiasts who share the same passion for driving as you do. Participants will attend a classroom session before heading to the cars for a series of challenging exercises that will help to demonstrate the abilities of your car. After the exercises the students will be paired with our club instructors where they will receive one on one instruction and "on track" coaching for the remainder of the weekend.
