Junior Driver Development Program

The 2016 Junior Driver Development Program (JDDP) finished yesterday with 22 drivers receiving handsome certificates for their achievement.
We had a great group and the weather spared us as not a single drop fell the whole time.
A big thank you to Allen Berg who took 3 days away from his business teaching big kids how to drive a race car to put on a comprehensive program that encompassed topics from how to look at a track to race starts to trail braking -all with on-track exercises to drive it home (pun intended).
Also thanks to Frank Sartor who put on an in-depth demonstration of kart maintenance and setup topics, complete with hand-outs. This was the first time we've done this and it was a big hit.
I will go through all the photos I took and try to figure a way to post them somewhere so you can see/get them.
Thanks to everyone who participated !
