Well I can think of one... We probably all had students who stick in our memory. I was with the Northern New Jersey Porsche Club chapter then. It was the biggest in the country, with more than 2000 members. We ran the Glen three or four times a year as I recall. Always three-day events. .
I had a young woman student who had a 944 Turbo and was already a very good driver. We had six run groups based on ability. Green, blue, white, black and red. She and her husband both drove the car. She in blue and him in white. I thought she should be in the white group for sure and didn't know how they going to deal with that because I didn't know if he was ready for black.
She told me she wasn't planning on driving for a while and I didn't think much of it. I took her out with me in the red group, which I didn't do very often unless I thought a student could benefit from it but still have sense enough to stay within their limits.
Later her mechanic, of all people, told me she was pregnant! That explained her planned absence. I think I may be the only instructor who ever took two passengers out at once. In one seat!
