I have been looking at race schools to attend to and which ones where the best. Then i got to thinking... what schools offer prgorams for becoming a race team mechanic??? Any ideas??? I know Jim Russel offers a mechanic program. What others???

Hey, here is the list that I've been looking into:
-Bridgestone Racing Academy: Near Mosport track Ontario Canada (Bowmanville, On.)
www.race2000.com. They seem pretty with it, returning inquiries quickly. Also have some rough cost estimates on site.
-Autosport Basi: St. Eustache, QC
www.autosportbasi.com
I applied for this one. Supposed to have found out in September about being accepted, still no definite answer to now. Apparently they are re-structuring and debating if the program will continue.
-Jim Russell as you mentioned. You probably know most of the details already.

The good thing with the Canadian schools is no real tuition costs. Basically a damage deposit, your tools, uniform and books. Of course living expenses are up to you. I'd give Bridgestone a call, see what they offer.

Hope this helps

I think the racing technology forum would better serve this
