Once Dellis starts driving #007, eye-opening driving secrets for both enthusiasts and casual prospects alike will serve as a prelude for your Custom-Tailored Program that lies ahead for you.

Skill Development Days — $495 – $750 – Half-Day/Full Day

Dellis’ on-camera experience allows him to comfortably explain the purpose of providing instruction to you.

RACERS & GEARHEADS —

Proven Track Record — Dellis’ high-performance driving instruction dates back to the mid-’80s when he taught Police Pursuit Driving at the Bobby Rahal TrackTime Driving Schools.  Prior to that, he taught full-time at Skip Barber Racing Schools.

His mechanical engineering degree’s graduating thesis “Vehicle Dynamics for the Racing Automobile” gives him insight into the physics involved, but his ability to explain it in plain English is where Dellis shines.

Presentations on the Friction Circle from the DRIVER’s perspective teaches drivers how to analyze steering feel so they can intuitively make the right moves with their hands and feet to get the car to respond according to their wishes.

With 2-1/2 years teaching full-time at the Skip Barber Racing School under his belt, Dellis became the Chief Instructor and led the classroom on weekends at the Bobby Rahal TrackTime Driving School while working full-time as Associate Editor at SAE’s Automotive Engineering magazine during the week.

As Chief Instructor at TrackTime Driving Schools, Dellis was able to fine-tune his presentations over 6-1/2 years so anyone can understand the advanced car-control principles.  He also was able to put a set of custom-molded grips on the steering wheel of Bobby Rahal’s Indy car in Long Beach a month before its official track debut winning the Indy 500 in ’93.

PersonaGrip & The Steering Wheel Guy

Dellis invented and twice patented the custom-molded steering wheels that you see today throughout IndyCar, F1, NASCAR, IMSA, et al.

At the 1993 Indy 500 debut, Dellis designed the steering wheel grips for race winner, Emerson Fittipaldi (Ser.#001).  Other drivers that gambled on that yet untested technology include: Sullivan, Ribbs, Cheever, and St. James.

Mysteriously, the winning steering wheel disappeared during the Victory Banquet that evening.

To this day, no one knows the exact whereabouts of Ser.#001 although Dellis donated a replica steering wheel bearing that serial number and similar engravings to the Indy Museum.  Dellis has since designed nearly 1000+ steering wheel grips as of this writing.

He has traveled the world — Berlin, Dusseldorf, and Ann Arbor, MI — speaking at steering conferences about how drivers can improve their ability to drive on the edges of the Friction Circle using a counter-intuitive relaxed grip on the steering wheel.
