by the way, attending Porsche driving events like autocross is an excellent way to get very cheap driving instruction. for A new driver learning the basics at a Professional school like Bondurant and Skip Barber would be extremely expensive as opposed to learning those same skills at your local Porsche club Autocross.
Some days I would have an instructor all day all the while gettng maximum feedback on the driving mistakes I was making.
This summer I attended a two part driving school called Evolution driving and spent about $300 which is considered cheap, and basically learned all the same things I learned at the $30 autocross events that the Porsche club held. It was just more time to practice in a more focused amount of time. After about one season of events I'd probably say I'm an 800X better driver than before. You also find yourself seeing the traffic in front of you in a different light because you have actually completely locked the steering wheel or stomped on the brake hard and generally know what's required to avoid another car while travelling at 0-60 mph.
The skills learned at these $30 Porsche events could save your life someday. (how's that for an advantage?).
