Default RipOff Watch: Sports Car Driving Experience Performance Driving School

I've seen some positive comments on this forum and a couple of others that were friends or employees of Sports Car Driving Experience. They had to be because I spent over $2500 (far too much for what you get) for a one day school at Palm Beach Raceway and it was the worst organized event I've ever attended. The instructor I had was a veteran of 11 months of track and/or racing experience. He didn't know how to teach me and was only worried about getting into his car. That is the deal you know, they give the instructors free track time to be an instructor. I thought the owner Henry Gilbert would be prominent in the event but he just did his classroom instruction which I could have learned anywhere and that was it.

Don't waste your money, Henry is a nice guy from the three words he spoke to me but the Sports Car Driving Experience is a joke. He also made a derogatory comment about an Indian individual or he possibly could have been Arabic that I didn't particularly appreciate. Bad school, too high of a price, and a bigot- not a winning combination.

I went to Faast Performance racing school and it was great!! It was cheaper, the instructors were real teachers and they like people no matter where they may have come from. http://www.faasst.com/
