Speaking as a 66 year old who has never had an auto accident I don't think anybody should be driving on the street fast enough to benefit from high performance driving lessons. Do they benefit you when you are coming fast around a tight curve totally in control as you were taught and there right in front of you is a : big buck,horse dung spread all over the road by the last guy (I've been told this is a huge danger in Amish country),loose gravel,
oil,a moving van stopped,or another car out of control coming toward you in your lane (take your pick and there are many more I didn't list). I'll probably get skewered in this forum but if it makes just one of you think the next time he goes out for a little "spirited driving" it will be worth it.
