    Like I said its not a real track. There is no elavation change...its slow..there's enough run off to play a soccer game and they still send you home if you are inexperienced enough to spin on such an easy piece of pavement to learn on. Tell a real BMW C.C.A instructor or N.A.S.A instructor that your only track experience includes Little TDGP. You'll be put in the same group as the people who have never been on Road Atlanta...or you'll be told.."That dosn't count." When I was 15 I was asked on my first day...so what tracks have you driven before we start..I responded "Little Talladega"...his response was "That does not count." Its a great place to have fun but its a very poor place to learn anything from other then your cars limits on flat pavement. One turn on Road Atlanta requires more knowledge. speed skills,balls and full awareness of what your doing then all the turns combined at Talladega...except maybe 6. This is why you run instructor free at LTDGP and at many autocross events..its nothing more than a large autocross or the "next level" for an relatively new driver.
