Not only CAN you assist, it's actually required. You have to do an (unpaid) "internship" with a school. You help get the bikes ready, you help set the range up, sometimes you'll read the cards and brief the students. Trust me, you want to do this as much as you can before you try to go through the RiderCoach Program, it will make things so much easier for you when it's time to do your RCP.

Yeah Nee was saying you have to do that first... but seeing as I probably won't have the experience for several years to teach... I figure I'll still assist as much as I can

I want to become a ridercoach someday soon. I was talking to one of the track day instructors and he said I already had the skills/experience to do it, and thought I would be good at it.

It would be a great feeling to be putting (hopefully) smart riders on the road.
