Few weeks ago I got a surprise invitation from Volkswagen Canada to join them during their VW Freedriving Tour that’s being held this weekend (July 22-24) in Toronto. Being a big fan of VW cars (ehumm…I LOVE my baby Jetta!!) I am super excited to get a chance to test the 2011 VW cars in a crazy closed course. Now here is a short video from the 2010 event to get an idea about what this event is about…

I have never done anything like this before and I might as well go BIG and go with the sporty GTI with the paddle shifting capabilities for my day of fun at the Freedriving event. It looks so fun to drive, I can’t wait!!!

To make this day even more fun I get to have my very own driving instructor to teach me all the tricks of the road and how to handle these cars on the track. One of the instructors for the day is Jeff McKague, he’s been a professional race and performance driver instructor for years and I can’t wait to learn a few things from the master himself. I wonder if he would teach me how to do doughnuts! Just a quick lesson, I promise not to do it on my own in the real world!!! 😉

If you any of you guys out there are interested in joining us thrill seekers this weekend in Toronto or to find out when and where the tour is going next, check out the Freedriving Tour’s official website for more information!

See you all there!
