Instruction

A couple of episodes back we discussed how to get better at autocross. In that episode we encouraged people to get instruction – especially new participants. So... we figured it was about time to do an episode on the other side of that equation: teaching people how to autocross (and how to get better at it).

Greg Turner is a retired music teacher with three decades of experience helping people learn in formal settings. He has also been autocrossing since 2005 and these days puts his teaching skills to use at autocross events. Greg joins host Mark Mangicaro (who has been teaching broadcast media at the college level since 2006) to offer some insight on how to get the most out of the limited time we have when instructing at local events.

In addition to some teaching/coaching tips we also discuss the different types of instruction that are available and where to find instruction.

Two programs mentioned in the podcast are The SCCA Starting line school: https://www.scca.com/pages/starting-line-autocross-school and Evolution Performance Driving Schools http://www.evoschool.com/schools.html.
