So anyway then, tell us which parts of the course you got to take and what you might recommend about them, what seemed like a waste/why, and just kinda brag about how cool it was... make us jealous.

From reading the course descriptions it sounds like I got Security driver and Motorcade Ops plus some extra. The security driver stuff was great. Basically they start with the basics of straight line braking. Then progress to braking in turns, swerve to avoid, skid pad, etc. Culminating with laps at the fastest speed you can manage around the track. You do this both night and day and the final test is having an instructor chase you. He tries to get in as many "Love Taps" as possible.
The motorcade stuff was cool. Our instructors set off a charge that I think was slightly larger than they really meant it to be. It dented the door and caught the car on fire momentarily.
Is there an overall tactical driving type course? Would that be a combination of the two courses you listed you think?

Can't really discuss things like this on the internet.......but I hear she made some poor tactical decisions.
To be honest.........I have NO idea. They kind of keep the teams seperated so that the "training" environment isn't "spoiled."
