Mercedes-Benz amg driving school

Owning an AMG-tuned Mercedes-Benz is a big deal. You’re treated to a pretty incredible package of driving dynamics and luxury on a daily basis. But having a massive V8 to play around with can get pretty hairy if you don’t know what you’re doing. Apparently, MB felt the same way, so they’re bringing their AMG driving school to the U.S. for the first time. You can now spend a couple grand to participate in various 4-6-day-long programs starting in the fall that will teach you how to better control a German driving machine.

Did we mention that lucky attendees will be getting behind the wheel of the new 2011 SLS AMG? Thought that’d grab your attention. Find out more at their website. [Source: Mercedes]

    Hey, I’m totally into driving (reckless driving on occassion!) and i’m looking for some new driving gloves. Any recommendations?

    Thanks for the question. You should try AlpineStars. They make pretty good racing gloves – all our editors have a pair.
