Random far fetched question:
Does anybody know of any racing schools equivalent to Skip Barber or Jim Russell in Japan? (Or anywhere in Asia...) That are good and come highly recommended...

 

Do you speak Japanese?

have you heard good things about this school? does it come recommended? i.e. on par with those in the bay area or even bondurant...

 

unfortunately i don't, so english would be prefered...

 

I know theres a racing school at Suzuka, though I think you have to be accepted into it

 

to be honest.. i don't know. its the only thing that turned up on google.

 

V... why not start a driving school in Shanghai? You got some driving skills.

 

would be a great idea. but dun think i'm good enough to do that ...

 

I think Option has circuit days all over Japan, but they're more like open track and less like driving school...

 

Have you found one yet?

 

Nope, not unless you're in among the rich expats who might have their own private events. Why do you want to take a driving school in Japan?

Of course, like Choku said, you can probably participate in whatever track days / gymkana type events offered by the various mags and agencies, but you'll need at least some basic Japanese or an interpreter to understand the safety briefing stuff...
