Thank you Mike.  I agree completely.  My post was quick, yours is well
explained.  An autocross school is valuable car control knowledge, and should
not be considered a complete driving course for any new driver.

 Car control and defensive driving are different but both are desirable.
 
 It is up to you to teach your kids about how to drive defensively, and
 to encourage them to do Autocross so that they can enjoy spirited driving
 in a safe place and learn valuable driving skills at the same time. >>
