If you have a teenage driver in the family you should sign him or her up for the National Auto Sport Association (NASA) Teen Driving & Car Control Clinic at Thunderhill Raceway, Willows, CA on November 26, 2010. Through classroom instruction, CHP lecture and demonstrations, and from the driver's seat of their own vehicles, the students learn turning, braking, parallel parking, driving in reverse, merging into traffic, and defensive driving techniques with a NASA High Performance Driving Instructor in the passenger seat of the student's car. Drivers learn what it feels like if your car starts to slide and how to keep it under control; what it is like having two wheels go off the pavement and how to safely bring it back onto the road; what the car feels like under panic braking; and much more. All this for only $99.00!To participate you need a vehicle in good condition, either a learner's permit or drivers license and closed toed shoes. Parents are encouraged to attend with their student. Go to the NASA site for more information and registration.
