Cary Harris’ Honors Physics class, at Broome
High School, spent the day at BMW
Performance Driving School. Students learned
how to control a vehicle on a wet skid pad and
during panic braking. While riding with skilled
driving instructor, Derek Leonard, students
traveled about 85 mph in a M3 BMW
experiencing how to maintain control of an
accelerating car in a variety of conditions. It
was a thrilling way for students to experience
firsthand the laws of physics.
