Default Nissan Performance Academy - Homestead-Miami Speedway

Much like the great AK, I recently had the opportunity to go to the Nismo Performance Academy. This one was at the Homestead-Miami Speedway, and it was awesome!

Osiris and I drove down from Central Florida after cleaning our cars. We knew we'd have to clean them again once we got down there, but we weren't expecting what followed. Road construction on the Turnpike with concrete dust and water flowing all across the road.




So we found a 24hr car wash and got to detailing until almost midnight.

Our swag bag




Decals applied to the cars


Hanging out on the bank during the course drive thru




Nismo Jukes for AutoCross. Let me just say, I was very impressed by the Nismo Juke. It handled very well and was incredibly peppy for what it is. I would seriously drive one as a daily without a single reservation. Secondly, the seats in the car were amazing. As in, I want to seriously swap my seats for the Nismo Juke seats.



Lunch... no sandwiches for us. Salad, chicken, brisket, and brownies.


Maxima with a few mods


We did a brief amount of classroom/Nismo immersion and did a ton of driving. The GT-R is simply amazing and getting to drive one and my own car on the track for free with professionals giving instruction was priceless. I simply cannot explain how much fun this was. If you ever get a chance to go...do NOT hesitate, call in sick if you have to.

Big thanks to Nissan for doing this too. I'll post some of the videos and photos when I get them e-mailed to me.

Oh, and I won this at the end
