Performance Driving at Watkins Glen May 31st

If you have ever wondered what it’s like to drive your Mercedes-Benz the way it was engineered to perform, or if you have been frustrated by the slow pace of traffic on winding roads, or if you want to improve your driving skills to take advantage of what those brilliant Mercedes Benz engineers have achieved, or if you simply want to enjoy your car even more, here is the opportunity. MBCA has teamed up with Lotus, Ltd to secure the famous Watkins Glen Grand Prix track in New York. We will have both classroom and on track instructors to help you learn the skills that race car drivers use to negotiate challenging turns safely and quickly. While we are teaching the skills, this is not a competitive event.  Complete details and registration information are available here
