Just another simple, sensible thing you have in Europe.... 
In the USA, many road race tracks offer driving schools on off weekends - but "many" is a relative term, since there are few road race tracks at all in the USA - and they are all sponsored. So you drive the track's cars, all the same, and it's not possible to compare different makes and models.
