A salute to all those that made for another great Performance Driving School. Once again, the CDI's did an over-the-top job of managing all aspects of the school, and lots of smiles were seen by all.
Great job guys and gals! My students had a blast, the other Instructors seemed to be having as much fun as I was, and the whole weekend can probably be summed up in one word:
GREAT!
I'm looking forward to the Fall PDS already.

My undying gratitude to all of the instructors and Keith and Dave. This was probably the most fun I've ever had with my clothes on. 
I think I drove with about 15 different instructors over the two days and talked to many more. Every instructor was pleasant, informative and patient. I also noticed that no opportunity for well timed humor was passed up.
It's this type of event that underscores why the San Diego Region is so awesome. I will be back for my first AX this Sunday.
Thanks to all of you!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Instructors -- thanks for your time and patience.
(To paraphrase) I came in with a backside [& skull] full of mush and left thinking more like a driver.
Bob B, thanks for Sunday's "Don't lift(s)!" thru the kink, the (never-remembered by me) "gas, gas, GAS!" just before coming off that last slalom cone, and low key "good..." when I infrequently got it right.
(When I didn't lift, and gas-gas-gas'd that last cone, things floated by a bit quicker.)
To the mini-auto-x guy (greg? craig?) -- thanks for your "look 2 apexes ahead!" & "...and now you should be [looking] *there*, and now you should be *there*, and now you should be..."
Helped more than you'll ever know.
To the 'gunny sargent in shades' at pitch & catch (who took my car out for a green group demo and let me ride along) -- not bad, Sarge -- not bad!
K & D -- thanks for putting this flying circus together. It was great fun and has made daily practices of onramps.
...and to whoever edited that video -- keeping in me feathering thru the kink -- may your engine drip oil for eternity...
