Okay I know that most of you have fun when you drive your Vipers above 130mph.
To day I have discovered a hidden treasure in the Laurentian Forest (100mi North of Montreal, Canada).
A Rally driver and his family built a race track complex in the middle of the Forest.
They have a school for people who want to learn how to handle their car.
What is unusual is the form of the race track.
You will never run above 55mph because there are a lot of turns.
It means you always stay in the second gear.
However you can push the Viper to its limits and that’s fantastic.

The school is specialized in drift control.
I wanted to learn how to drive my Viper in emergency situations so I registered for one of these trainings.
I can tell you that I had a lot of fun.
I drove my Viper on wet surface, braked it hard, span a few times but I learned how to handle my Viper. I believe that I now know my Viper's limits.
At the end of the training we had the opportunity to run a few laps on the track. Have a look on these video:

The school's address is http://www.mecaglisse.com
It is a simple place but the Family is very very friendly. As I said earlier the track is in the middle of the Forest.Everything is so quiet when you turn off the engine. It’s beautiful and I think it worth to spend a day there if you come to Montreal.
