MOST FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS :

 


1). How fast will I drive my car?

 How fast you go depends of you. We will change driving-seat many times...untill you learn. While I encourage participant to find his limits, I am also checking car’s conditions for better set-up.

It is easy buy a GT car that reaches 200-300 km/h. But after having bought, ? who will teach you to control the HP you have paid?   

I also start with a variety of driving exercises geared to teach you the basics of car control. Only after
you have established a solid basic knowledge of car driving, you will be able to learn to drive well and fast, with minimum risk.

                                                          


2). Why it is important to ride near to me, in my car, on my roads?

This is the only way to see what's really happening inside the car, with your feet, hands and eyes. I can see what you are doing right and what  wrong, and give instant feedback.  

You simply cannot teach a skill such as high performance or race driving from the outside. How would you like to learn to fly an helicopter with your instructor standing on the ground?
If you go to any RACE DRIVING SCHOOL IN CIRCUIT…. It is easy learn 10-15 turns of 3-4 km length of a circuit.
When you are back home, surely you will be surprised that all is different! On your car…your roads…. trainer will be not near to help you!

 


3). If my car has technical problems and cannot be driven at high performance by an expert?

Never mind, I will pass a technical/safety inspection and decide what to do in a workshop, untill car can be driven by me…and after we can start with lessons.  

 


4). How fast PIETRO will drive my car?

I will drive your car at speed that you feel safe and not over your limit in understanding.      NO-RISK! 

 


5).  From what airport do you start ? 

  Usually I am often travelling,... start: from Spain or from Brasil. Please contact me by email.

 


6). I have many old classic sport-cars. Can you test them and check out what to do for best performance, respecting the concept of classic car?

Yes. I will be glad to do it. My time at your home can be fully used by you.... 

 


7). POLICE, RADAR, SPEED LIMIT,...how do you resolve this problem?

 We need only 2-3 km of road without anybody... Hill climb, not used roads, etc..and we repeat up and down many times. 


8). I have a Bodyguard driver and a bullet-proof-car. The weight of the car it is so high that my driver doesn’t like to go fast.

No problem. Surely something can be done, both on car and on driver’s technique.

 


9). When are your courses offered?  In what countries ?

Our courses are offered all times and all the year and worldwide.  My flight-origin country may be Spain or Bahia(BR)...or anyone where I am.

     


10). Are there any requirements for me to attend?

You must be at least 18 years of age, in good physical condition, hold a valid non-restricted driver's license, and have at least six months driving experience. You will be also required to sign a document by that you will discharge me of any responsibility.

 


11).Can I use my own city car?

Yes, of course. I have seen everything: from Volkswagen Beatle ...AUDI,BMW,SUBARU,TOYOTA,.....to Ferrari.... and car after TUNING. The type of car isn't  important as the condition of the car. Your vehicle must have proper safety equipment for both driver and passenger and be in good operating order.

  


12). On-Track Sessions? ......or  My own private circuit ?     

If near to your home/town exist a circuit, we can use it, alternating theory and practice lessons. 

PRIVATE CIRCUIT: Avoid speed limits on roads ! Pietro can give consulting for best track. A blend of hills and circuit's turns.....Lenght: 2000 mtr and 5-6 mtr width: are only 10-12.000 msq of road to build... In Roma the  CIRCUIT OF VALLELUNGA started with 1.800mtr lenght (designed by Ing. Pero TARUFFI)...(it was an old horses races hyppodrome).
