The Saab Academy finally opens for all at Road Atlanta in Braselton Ga. where the two-day performance driving school was held. The driving school was only reserved for exclusive Saab Aero model customers only and is only available in the US.

The two-day intensive driver education is filled with lectures that pertain to Saab Aero performance vehicles. The class is composed of 20% classroom lecture and a huge 80% advanced handling exercises to perfect the skill of the trainees. The trainers were from Aero Academy who are professionals in terms of car driving.

Steve Shannon, the Saab Automobile USA General Manager, said, "The Saab Aero Academy is an important element of the overall Saab customer experience. Improving driving skills and learning how to avoid an accident benefit American road-ways. Besides, pushing Saab 9-3s and 9-5s to the limits on a safe, closed course is just plain fun and we wanted to share that experience with as many people as possible. Bottom line, if you love to drive and want to sharpen your skills in a Saab, it's a must."

The Aero Academy enrollees will experience a skid pad so that they will learn how to control the car, The Auto Channel has the story:

• proper steering, throttle and brake responses
  
• "threshold" braking, which teaches how to apply brakes, improve reaction time and avoid brake lockup
  
• a lane change exercise which is designed to improve reflexes and car control skills
  
• a slalom course which tests timing, throttle and steering skills - all while avoiding the orange cones
  
• an autocross, a scaled down race track that tests cornering, braking, acceleration and skid control while using 100 percent of the cars' potential
