NASA
is offering an exciting new program to make your HPDE experience even
more rewarding. Many of NASA's experienced racers have volunteered
to act as Mentors to participants in the HPDE program. Mentors will
act as a personal resource for any questions you might have regarding
your NASA experience, from event procedure (where do I go, what do
I do?), to car setup, to driving technique.
The plan works like this:
When you sign up for the HPDE (or anytime after you have signed up)
let NASA know you want a Mentor. NASA will match you with an appropriate
Mentor from the list, and give you your Mentors E-mail address, or
phone number. You contact your Mentor. The two of you work together
any way that's comfortable for both of you. It's that easy, and there
is no fee for the service, but I would recommend a hearty thanks to
your Mentor!
Mentors will be allowed to take their protégé on
one group 4 ridealong during each event for which the protégé
is entered (in the Mentors car), and Mentors are always welcome
to ride with their protégé in any of the students
sessions.
If you are interested in participating in the program as a student,
and have signed up for HPDE, please Email your regional director.
