When IRA activity was at its peak in the UK, Rolls Royce had a defensive driving course. Among the maneouvres they taught was how to put a Rolls through 180 degrees and either go through a roadblock backwards or accelerate away from it, in both cases with minimum loss of speed and without trashing the gearbox. We put several drivers through that course as a bit of PR and they thoroughly enjoyed themselves.
PS: slightly different, but I read a while back that Mortimer Racing Schools run courses in the US these days. They are a lot of fun if anyone gets the chance to try them out.
