This is at BB airport before the watch tower was torn down, barely anyone knows BB and the tower now ...

There are at least few people here remember BB and the old tower la.  I spent countless number of my weekend back there dragging cones.  Hahaha...  good memory.

I agree Velocity I worths every penny and I attent twice when I first started.  Good couse for begineer, and good seat time for those who want more.  Solid format to ensure everyone learn something useful.  I taught at Velocity I the year before I retired myself.

What exactly does Velocity 1 teach? I've been to performance driving classes, just want to know how much of the content might be of repeat.

When it was hold back at Boundary Bay, it used to be divided up into 3 sections: slalom, 180 + cross-over, and G-circle.  These 3 are basic elements in any auto-x course.  Each student will repeat practice on each sections with instructors sit in and give you pointers.  At the beginning and the end of the day, these 3 sections will be joined up to make a normal auto-x course.  When comparing your morning base time against you end-of-day time, you could know how much you improved.

And there is also a classroom section which teach you all the driving/racing basic.

I could teach you anytime free, on street?  Haha...  Actually my autoX history only covered FWD car with < 200hp, plus less then 10 events in my mighty Miata.  Driving a FWD fast, you just need patient.  Driving a RWD fast is different, and I'm far from any good.

If you have a high HP car that you never gun it, going to Velocity and have the big boy instructor driving your car is real eye opener in what your car could perform.

So I guess this is more AutoX performance oriented, not so much as 'safety/collision avoidance' as some of the other offerings are out there? What I mean are those ones held by Drivings Unlimited (w ...

BiscottiGelato, you're right.  After all, it is an introduction course to start AutoX-ing, although it could still benefit your daily driving, or just for fun.
