BMW does this with local members autocrossing their own cars, Lexus is taking it a step further....using real race courses (instead of parking lots).

Just curious, is the half or full day a good deal? I've never been on a track before; been wanting to, but the high insurance cost for track day insurance has prevented me.
It looks like lexus supplies the cars, correct?

looks like it will be their cars, not yours.

i joined the half day F school when ISF arrived. honestly, it was far from impressive, i almost felt it was money wasted. not enough 1-1 time, not enough freedom for individual development. comparing it to the M school (full day) it was night and day

i can't comment on this, but seems like they have learned from their experience and trying to make a lot of improvements here. i really hope this time they are able to offer more useful and competitive driving school similar to that of M school and AMG academy

If you input all your personal information, you should get an email with a confirmation that you signed up for the Express package, and the date/time you signed up for.
