I don't think they are paid (at least not much if they are), but basically get free track time during the 'coach session' at the end of the day. Some of my friends have been asked to be coaches, but declined. Certainly an honor if you are asked. Getting a good coach that works with your driving style is definitely a little bit of a roll of the dice, but your odds are pretty good with HOD.
Exactly. My friends at work all pretty much do HOD stuff religiously, and they've recommended it extremely highly based on pretty much how responsible they are when bad things do happen. Plus one of the autoclub guys at work that's got more track time than probably half of the club combined is an instructor with them as well.
