I'm sure most of you will understand the desire to want to learn a more aggressive type of driving that is not so focused on passenger comfort, but more on the satisfaction and exhilaration of getting the car through a set of corners in the fastest way possible.
As far as road driving is concerned, if it feels fast, it's too fast.

If you're unable to stop in the distance you can see to be clear and on your own side of the road, it's too fast. It can still feel fast without being too fast, imvho.

Most of us?... on the public road?... Aggressive type of driving... exhilaration... cornering in the fastest way possible?

May I respectfully suggest that you examine your GDE levels 3 & 4; and when that's done have a look at levels 5, 6 & 7.

I think it's time for vonhosen to have a quiet word in your ear; he'll explain it far better than I can.

The HPc sounded interesting but after looking at the website I'm none the wiser.
Nothing of substance on there about what they actually do ...
readit Perhaps one of the more active HPC members, such as Waremark or Stressed Dave, could feed this back to the Club's webmaster.

This is useful feedback, including the context of HPC's Young Drivers Day as well as in general.
