Driving with confidence

[b0bby]

Hi guys,

I am loving my polo gti, but before i even consider getting it chipped i wanted to get some experience on learning to drive a manual a bit better. Eg, learning how to take a fast start off etc.

Basically i am looking if their is any one day courses in quasi 'race' driving or defensive driving ?

I suggest you update your location so we can make the best suggestions possible

I have done advanced driving/defensive driving courses as have others here but is there one for quick starts, not so sure. I'd start saving up for a new clutch though

definitely a good idea to do the defense driving/advanced driving courses for on-road confidence.

as for the stock/chipped polo though, if you get your starts perfected as stock, won't that just be a waste of time. IMO, launching a chipped polo is a whole new world over stock.

Yeah I'd have to agree when I switch back to stock I find it a hell of a lot easier to drive clean compared to driving chipped.
