Driver Ed in Orange County, California?

[pbs911]

Are there any DE events in Orange County? I checked with my PCA chapter, but I was told they don't have'em. Jack and Black Beauty have made Willow Springs very attractive, but its a little too far.

Yes! Or fairly nearby, although WSIR & SOW are the closest "real" tracks to us, AFAIK.

It kind of depends what particular type of event you are seeking. Big track? You'll have to head out to Willow Springs or Buttonwillow, I think.

Check out the PCA-OCR (Orange Coast Region) event calendar here: http://www.pca.org/ocr

OCR has started hosting some "combo" autocross-timetrial-drivers ed events out at the Irwindale Speedway. At the last one I attended, we basically ran time-trial format continuous laps all morning, and then did "stop-go-stop" traditional autox format timed runs in the afternoon. Instructors were available for anyone who so desired.

It is a "cone" course so obviously not the same animal as a real bonafide race track, but a fun and affordable day nonetheless.

FWIW I also have my own "personal" So Cal events calendar page here: http://www.nosubstitute.org/calendar.asp I try to aggregate the local schedules from various PCA regions, POC, TCRA, etc.
