Re: Physical requirements for a 3 day racing school

You'll learn more from the formula school and what you learn will be more easily transferrable to any kind of car you drive. The formula cars are pure rear engine race cars that give more direct responses to input than the MX-5's. In terms of car control and vehicle dynamics you'll be better served by the formula car. When you learn to manage the rear engine formula car well you'll be able to get into almost any other kind of car and do well. The MX-5's are good but they're functionally street cars with ABS brakes and body lean. If you want the most value and benefit from your time. Do your 3-day in the formula car.
