This is why I'm excited about this. I think my wife would enjoy the experience together in a less intense environment.

Same here. When COVID caused all HPDE's to be cancelled in March-May, I rented a track for a private Test-n-Tune and we took the 1M and RX-8. I coached my wife and my son, and my wife probably would have had a lot more fun in a DCT car. She is excited about the CS, and I am hoping I can get her to try a real track day eventually. The M Driver Program may be great for her.
As an aside, having a day to spend in the car with my son was gold for so many reasons. Once we were able to do HPDE, the novice instruction was lead-follow only, and the day he had with me in the car created enough of a foundation for him to make the most of an otherwise suboptimal experience.
