Hi,

Doc, PCA Courses are great, but spendy both in entry fees and Tech requirements. But, they are not the definitive source for skilled driving education. In fact, having been a PCA Memeber for 5 yrs., I have yet to join Nord Stern (Local Region) or attend any of their events. While in the Lotus Club, an affiliate of Intermarque (just like Nord Stern), I've found these guys to be standoffish and such - so I have never participated.

Check out the Minnesota Autosports Club (MAC). MAC sponsors a whole season of Auto-X events s well as numerous Driving Courses, including a Novice School which will be scheduled on 4/21,22. Open to all members, this 2-day school is only $50 and held at Dunwoody, just outside Downtown Mpls. Check them out at: http://forum.mnautox.com/forums/

MAC is much less expensive and has less expensive Tech requirements as well. Hope this helps...

Happy Motoring!... Jim'99
