Skills-focused Driving
Our focus is on safety and learning. Every student is assigned an in-car instructor or a data coach for the duration of the event. Classroom sessions feature presentations and discussions of vehicle dynamics, car control, and corner-by-corner track details.
Beyond in-car instruction, GGC provides coaching based on data acquisition. Data from your track session is captured, analyzed, and then turned into goals for the next session. Advanced and intermediate drivers can add on Advanced Data Coaching (ADC), subject to availability.
Our solo program, Group S, is available for a select group of advanced drivers. ADC is included for S drivers — your coach works with you in a classroom rather than in your car. Each day, Group S includes 3-4 laps of on-track exercises to build expertise beyond lapping. The goals include building the following skills:
- being fluid in traffic
- using the whole track
- 360 degree situational awareness
