Another entry into Jeff's "succeed at schools" log

1) This will be one of the funnest weeks of your life, be ready to really enjoy this school.

2) the best way to prepare I see is to play Forza or Gran Turismo. This course will bring the concepts of technical driving, threshold braking, racing lines, oversteer, understeer. Those games are so well designed that you will become a better driver by playing them, as well as better understand what is asked of you during the EDC.

2) You will do some offroad driving as well. It is not rock crawling, it is closer to rally driving. Understand how you can use the accelerator pedal to literally steer the car. Know a "Scandinavian flick".

3) The more you understand the theory of driving - how contact patches, drivetrains, lines, apexes, throttle, brake, steering, etc work, the better you will do at the course and MORE FUN YOU WILL HAVE. The better you are, the faster you will go.
