Yeah but often times people that have no business being in the instructor clinic slip through if they just sign up. The comp school students must be 'approved' by chris, I would like to see the instructor clinic "students" handled the same way.
Our requirements are that a person have at least 30 track days to enroll in the instructor clinic and I do verify that experience personally. If they have slightly less than 30 days but over 25, Chris or Dan Unkefer can approve them to take the clinic. The person in question has well over 30 track days, but not all people are cut out to be instructors or HPDE 3 drivers for that matter. If you see poor driving or bad attitudes in HPDE 3 or anywhere, please report it officially to Dan Unkefer or JJ so that we can be aware of it. A lot of times people just "assume" that we know something that we don't. We are aware of this particular situation though. Thanks for the heads up.
