You've heard about performance driving schools featuring BMW, Mercedes-Benz and Porsche, but have you heard about the Ford ST SUV Experience? Anyone who has recently taken delivery of a Ford Explorer ST or a Ford Edge ST is eligible for a single-day program in either Park City, Utah or Asheville, North Carolina.
What's included? Street driving, evasive and skidpad work, and even an autocross session.
What unusual car, SUV or truck would you want to take to a driving school? What about an autocross?
I'd love to take my modified Tahoe Limited, but the local SCCA chapter says no (high CG vehicle, even if it does just meet the height/width reg. Liability is a pain). Otherwise, I've always wondered about the manual transmission Cayenne GTS and the original BMW X5 4.6is or 4.8is.
Asheville, NC? I wonder what exact location where that could be held?
Biltmore? I wouldn't get excited about that.

The "Land Rover Experience" operates out of the Biltmore. Would they share?
Also, Park City? I've got Baader-Meinhof now. It seems like I've heard a lot about Park City lately.

I'm curious too, driving here sucks. Unless you're out between 2 and 5:30 am, you're sitting in traffic on all of the roads within a 10 mile radius of town. I guess you could really test out the auto start stop system on the Explorer on I-26 between the airport and 240.
I have a friend who bought an Edge ST. That thing is more fun than it has any right to be.
