As someone who has taken the class before, I highly recommend them as one of the best ways to improve your skills and get better at autocrossing. The classes will be conducted in the Great America parking lot in Santa Clara and official class descriptions are below:<\/p>\n<p><strong>Phase I School<\/strong><\/p>\n<blockquote><p>\nThe &#8220;original&#8221; Evolution program as developed by the McKamey Autocross School. This first step in the Evolution is where all students start,regardless of experience. Daylong course builds upon students existing skills, while introducing new ideas to improve one\u2019s times. Students both ride and drive with Evolution trained national caliber drivers to learn where they are fast and where they need to improve. Small student teacher ratio of 6:1 insures quality instruction time.<\/p>\n<p>Combined with race proven skills, concepts, and techniques this course will improve the performance of all drivers on both road and track.Even experienced driver\u2019s benefit from the Phase 1 course as a refresher for those things they\u2019ve forgotten over the years or perhaps never learned.No matter what type of car you drive the Phase 1 skills will improve your overall driving abilities.<\/p>\n<p>Note: All students must provide their own two-seat vehicle for the day. Two driver cars are welcome.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><strong>Phase II School<\/strong><\/p>\n<blockquote><p>\nBuilding upon the skills learned in Phase 1, Phase 2 takes the driver into new areas of mental race preparation, allowing the Phase 1 skills to be applied as second nature. Various driving exercises are conducted throughout the day to improve the driver\u2019s visual and mental imaging of the course, resulting in quicker lap times.<\/p>\n<p>This course has worked &#8220;magic&#8221; in reinforcing the importance of Phase 1 skills and transferring those skills to every autocross course you may encounter. The Phase 2 track design is not the same as used in Phase 1 and generally has higher speed sections.Note: Phase 2 students must first have completed the Phase 1 Program. As in Phase 1, students must provide a two-seat vehicle for the day.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Use the following links to sign up for the course:<br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/www.evoschool.com\/index.php?page=golden-gate-chapter-of-the-bmw-car-club-of-america-phase-one-2\">Day 1 (May 1, 2010): $275<\/a><br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/www.evoschool.com\/index.php?page=golden-gate-chapters-of-the-bmw-car-club-of-america-and-lotus-club-phase-two\">Day 2 (May 2, 2010): $275<\/a><br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/www.evoschool.com\/index.php?page=golden-gate-chapters-of-the-bmwcca-and-golden-gate-lotus-club-phase-two\">Day 1 &#038; 2 (May 1-2, 2010): $500<\/a><\/p>\n<p>For more information in the Evo School program please visit their website at <a href=\"http:\/\/www.evoschool.com\/\">www.evoschool.com<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Registration for the GGLC\/BMWCCA joint EVO school on May 1 and 2 is now open.
