But these are the types of drivers i am cautious about - balls to the walls hero types with no skill or training.

Hope he is ok and learns from this.

Structured programs from BMWCCA and PCA are the best way to start as a beginner. I remember the first time that I went to a ExtremeSpeed event after coming out of BMWCCA. The overall chaos and disorganization was disturbing. BRP looked like a big dust bowl with cars going off one after another. Disconcerting to say the least.
