There is no way I'd put a teenager into a car as capable as the WRX without formal aggressive/defensive driving skills. If you weren't aware of this type of training please follow the link and get her signed up.

Is there something like what you mentioned for older drivers? I've seen the skip barber and others like it but they are close to $1500 and for only one day. Personally I don't think that kind of thing can be learned in one day.

Also do you know anything about the SRT experience that dodge offers. It's about $700 for the day but I'm not sure what they teach. I see that they teach racing but they don't mention anything about loss of control or things like that.
