    Preferably not further than 1000 miles ride from say Spokane Washington, less would be better.
    Just planning a little vacation for next year.

    I just Googled them, yep 60,000 litres of milk. Water is 1 litre to 1 kg, milk is less, something like 1 lite equals about 750g to 800g

    Do you want a full race school, or a 1 or 2 day program.
    Cars or Motorcycles?
    If your thinking of bikes, do a search on Keith Code racing school or California superbike school. Think either one will work.

    Does he run a race school?
    Say a couple of days of training with lots of driving?

    I want to take my sister and I.
    In 2019 I got us a 6 hour course, but would like to do more around 16 hours. The 6 hour course I signed us up for was in BC, and we were in Mustangs. It was 3 hours of instruction, and 3 hours driving.

    In cars, with good instructors, on a good track, good cars, someplace that is fun, but we really learn as well.

    If I am honest with myself, I believe that my calling was to be a rally car driver. While that won't happen, I do like learning how to drive like a race car driver, on a track.
    I have done s track days, 2 were short, just 2 hours each the first couple, and the last time was 6 hours total, 3 of which were in the car.
    I felt a lot faster my last lap of that day, than my first lap.
    About lap 27 that day, I spun out doing over 200, my instructor sitting in the passenger seat was concerned about me being freaked out. Yes I had stalled the car to. She is asking me if I am okay, how do I feel. Then she could see smile in my helmet, and heard me say " That was cool. Not cool I lost control, but that we spun a few 360s, and there are no consequences because its on a track, and there are only 6 cars total. What a rush! ".
    I started up, peeled out, and was back turning laps. My instructor was laughing, and told me it was fun to be in the car with someone who was laughing about it, not scared. I had just lapped my baby sis when i spun out, for a few seconds I was thinking she might ram us. But she missed us completely and was down on the grass.
    That evening at dinner we sure had some good laughs my baby sister and I.
    She said her instructor was sure that they were going to ram us as we spun. But she aimed for the hole, missed us, spun 180 and slid backwards onto the grass. I thanked her for not slamming into us lol

    Milk should be more dense than water. It has more stuff in it than water.
