30 Years Later, The Life of a Driving Instructor

- We interview Mike McGovern the Chief Driving Instructor at Bondurant School in Arizona. After a life of cars and driving experience, he talks about teaching kids, race car drivers, and people like us. Cars and trucks are everywhere, some people care about it while others don't but there is one common thread, we have to share the roads. Often times you get back what you put in and we talk to Mike about just that.

Dr. Goose, you truly outdid yourself with these interviews... Score - 10.0
I recently discovered your channel here my friend, it is highly refreshing to hear your candid opinions of a "real" driving & car enthusiast, not just another vacuous car flexing channel with nebulous new trends! Fantastic clean production values & car content worthy of watching, so good man!
vinniecorleone62 well said! We couldn’t agree more
This is Kaylene!- the Technician at Bondurant.
It was so wonderful to meet your team. You are all wonderful people. Thanks for all of your advice, your videos are AMAZING!
Let us know when you plan on coming back!
Mike was my instructor at Bondurant. Stand up guy and great teacher. Also, listen to his restaurant recommendations 👍🏎
"Invest in yourself before you invest in the car"... That is the line I will remember from this interview 6+ months from now. Cool vid Senior Goose!
Your passion for other peoples passion shines through SG. Well done.
I could and would listen to this guy for the 16 hours he suggested!! Great interview, Mr. SavageGeese!
Fantastic interview, loved every minute.
I think taking a couple of racing classes is recommended for car guys
It gives quite an experience especially for those planning to do track days
"This is my guitar" speaks to my core. I am the quintessential self-taught (sims, autocross, snowy parking lots, track days, mountain roads, etc) driver who has had some interest in these driving schools for a long time, but never gone to one. Because I've been self taught for so long, and have not had great instructors in the past (and I have an ego), I've been hesitant to do these. It would take the right instructor and the right exercises, for me to spend the $$$ and time. You're doing a great job highlighting the guys that do this. Maybe you'll find me out there in the next year. Thanks.
Really like these type of videos!
Awesome Viper too!
Supercars in Greece yes viper 🐍🐍🐍🐍
@@buntafujiwara5069 yes mate!!!
This video didn't get enough love. Thank you for sharing every aspect of cars from reviews to detailing to driver skills etc.
In my younger days, I did a handful of track days at Gingerman in SW Michigan. It's a ton of fun, but it's not easy, and there are few better ways to just beat the life out of a car. I'd love to go to Bondurant or otherwise invest in professional instruction, but it's cost-prohibitive for me. It's great to hear an instructor's perspective, and if you really want to commit to being a driver, this is probably the way to go. But for the average person on the street, enthusiast or not, it's a tall ask.
Sounds like you need a side hustle
This is a dream! Wish I could attend. Hopefully will one day. Even be a part of a team like that... Thank you for this.
Driving instructor? Brave people.
Damn I wish we had these type of schools here in Australia 😔
Make Your own school.
well done Mr. Goose. this is outstanding in terms of the sheer amount of knowledge thats provided. thanks for the really cool opportunity to get to listen to Mike and his take on things. the amount of various content you put out is unmatched. the best part is that it covers so many topics about being a car nut, and myself as a track rat, this was like a kid on christmas kind of deal. great level of info, right up there with Ross Bentley's Speed Secrets!
Nothing like some viper booty for a good backdrop
driver mod is the most important upgrade.
Would really be interested why four people disliked the video. Are they Doug DeMuro fans? Or what?
Mcs Wks they are all Cat haters
@@AndietheLab Or geese haters... 🤷♂️
My guess would be that they only want the channel to produce car review content.
I was fortunate to spend a day with Mike at the SRT experience in Sept 2019. What a blast that was, and Mike definitely made it fun and was Excellent as an instructor. I got to ride a couple of hot laps with Mike at the EOD, and saw what those cars can really do. This school made me a better everyday driver in my Challenger, and if I can convince my wife to let me go for an extended day package, I'll be back! Thanks for everything.
Another great video. Nice to see someone with honest passion talking about their job.
This is terrific. I really want to plan to do some of these lessons. I have too many house things now but in a year or two I would love to take some of the courses offered.
Hats off to you SG for bringing this to us. With the performance vehicles that are now being produced, dealers should be presenting this school to those who buy those cars.
Nice interview Mark, really enjoyed it. Passion shines through on both sides.
Thanks for this as always Monsieur Goose, hello from French Canada, ie the other end of the Great Lakes watershed we share with Chicagoland. I’m wondering if you’re planning a series on electric performance options and whatever electric ‘racing’ options we’ll have one day soonish. I ask because I recently made the mistake of test driving the Model 3 AWD long-range, and found it intriguing enough to seriously consider. At the moment I drive a chipped Porsche 944turbo which, while epic in a 1980s way, is not a four-season multi-use car the way the Three seems to be. Many questions.
Thank you.
I’m glad driving mods are being emphasized here, I’ve made a few videos on my channel talking about how spec racing is the best type of racing to start out with and I am making a video called “Mods are stupid” coming soon which talks about how most modifications are a waste of money and that should you invest in your own driving performance instead
That's it, I'm going to Bondourant. The 3-day class for sure.
really appreciate this interview mark !!! great job with the types of questions
I need a session at racing school
Very cool!
The way that Mike describes the lead / follow practice makes it almost sound like Top Gun.
Ace of Spades top gun in a car! New movie idea...
Mark this was awesome. I’m on the East Coast but am going to go to this school. I’m lucky enough to own several expensive cars and need to learn how to really drive them.
I want to go to this school so bad.
Pasting sticky tape on cats gets 1M+ subscribers. How is this channel not above 1M yet defies any comprehension ???
Theres an order of magnitude more plebes than car guys
Why not put this interview over to the podcast? It's been pretty barren with 3 episodes only
Because he's not going to I would like to ask everyone to make sure they like the video and whatnot to support this kind of substantive content. I think I have liked all of 2 videos in my life but I think it actually matters here.
Why are you so stingy with likes? They are free, ya know.
Mr. Goose have a kid now?
I have the same question..
Goose Jr.
Lease with option to buy, hot new trend.
@@zachg9065 They're called goslings...
I was hoping I wasn't the only one hearing this as new information.
Splendid. Your best work to date.
Was hoping to see you on the course with Mike, Driving a hellcat or Vette.
Great interview, thanks Mark for sharing this! I love driving and it really helps to learn from a professional. Worth the investment.
Amazing video! Thanks for making this.
Great Interview! Nice work.
This is really informative, I need to find something like this here in NJ
Awesome video, thank you.
If you take a look at any premium auto wreckers website, you'll see the the lack of driver education abound with high end performance cars with crazy horsepower and torque figures smashed foolishly!!!
I totally agree with Mark that it should be mandatory that factory built high performance cars above a certain horsepower and torque require mandatory driver training before taking ownership. It can save lives, reduce insurance premiums and make roads safer with these types of vehicles on them.
Being a better driver and car owner starts and ends with continuous education!!!
Mark, is there somewhere around the Illinois area that can teach the basics of track driving?
Have you ever considered having a podcast channel? I would love to listen to it if there is one on the road.
One of the best..it’s unfortunate these courses have been dumbed down for sales to so much fish guys in super car junk vs learning to drive and race
The purple head halo is really channeling Thanos vibes. 😇
Wish I could attend
great interview
Awesome video
Veloster n review?
That was amazing!
Great video btw
Savagegeese, why did you bring your lava lamp to the track?
SEAT TIME !!!!
👑
If I take the advanced driving course, can I get lower insurance rate?
Mmm very good to know that people still love cars as much as tofu.the best way to drive is to just close you’re eyes and be one with the car with a cigarette nothing will ever beat driving on the mountains.
If they use Hellcats, how do they teach manual shifting techniques?
William Jacques you can option a hellcat with a manual.
I think this is a great video...but man i just looked up the price of this place and holy crap...2k for 1 day?? or 5k for 3 days?? i cant see how that can be worth it. thats like 21 track days for me...and or a whole new car!!! lol
How much time and money does it take to go to driving school and learn good techniques? Three days and thousands of dollars?
pretty much. it's not cheap for those who still make payments on their corolla.
Wow
Personally I think everyone should have to complete a 24 hr Le Mans race and run on at least 10 rally stages world wide and post a competitive time before they are issued a drivers license 😂
Because the perpetual and never ending shit that I see on the road is astounding.
If only I can spend that kind of money, lol.
Nana
sexy vid as always
If you need a driving challenge, please drive in India. :P
Im not sure drivers can be considered "Athletes".
Maybe not ordinary drivers. Considering that the word "Athlete" describes a person who is trained or skilled in exercises, sports, or games requiring physical strength, agility, or stamina, it would certainly be a fitting term for a racing driver.
Enough with the Bondurant videos....please! Great school....if they're going to sponsor you, I'd rather just see a 30-second clip or something before the video. Back to car videos!
Its not a sponsorship, I have 5 days of content about driving related items. To release over time.
@@savagegeese Okay sorry! Just a lot of re-used clips from the other video (which I thoroughly enjoyed), but I found this interview sounding kinda advertorial and didn't really get much out of it other than that, but maybe it's just the cynic in me.
