Caught the bug when I was 5 yrs old! Was an avid fan of rally. When society allowed me to drive, I became involved in rallying in the mid 70's. We had a Ford Lotus Cortina practice car and a Datsun 1600SSS (a modified 510) rally car. All that was put on hold when the family thing happened. Re-engaged in car activities after the kids grew up. In 2001 I joined road racing - too old for rally now, I need to know the slope and direction of the next blind turn :) I currently instruct for many organizations as follows: Trillium Chapter BMW Club of Canada GVC Chapter BMW CCA Tarheel Chapter BMW CCA Boston Chapter BMW CCA RAVEN Performance
I race in BMW CCA Club Racing, CASC-OR and SCCA
Also have been a martial arts instructor for 20 years - this is relevant to driving instruction because experience in instructing anything really helps to communicate a concept to a student.
