VCMC has been successfully running the Velocity Driving School for many years. This year we are taking the best of our Velocity program to create a new one day course specifically for women. Women's performance driving workshop is a one day driving workshop, designed and organized by women. The goal is to improve confidence behind the wheel and as an introduction to the sport of autocross.

Any woman in any car (sorry no SUV or Mini vans) can participate! VCMC has more women members than ever before, and we will be making sure that this course is fun and accessible. We are keeping course enrollment low to ensure that we have a great instructor to student ratio. We will be doing slalom exercises, taking your car to the limit of traction and also doing breaking exercises. All exercises will be done in a safe and controlled way with instructors; about half of our instructors will be
experienced women drivers from our club.

The course will be taking place from 9am to 3pm on May 24th, 2008, at the PTEC Driving Centre, Coquitlam. Both breakfast and lunch will be provided. The majority of the day will be spent behind the wheel doing a variety of driving exercises, but we will also be doing car safety checks, proper seat and mirror position adjustments, and a brief talk about tire pressure and vehicle dynamics. We will break for lunch and then spend the afternoon running a small scale autocross event and trying to improve your lap times.

If you are interested in our course but still have questions, e-mail us at vcmc@vcmc.ca.
