I am looking to undergo a career change but do not know how to go
about it.  First of all, I would like to become a professional/stunt
driver.  This is something that I have always wanted to do; however, I
do not know how to go about it.  Where do I learn the techniques? Are
there schools? Are some better than others? How do I get publized for
a commercial or film.

Google with    stunt driving schools

You will find several, also this site:

Hello.

To start with, you will need to know the basics and attend a school
that will teach you how to drive a stock car before you get into doing
stunts (for your own safety).  I am working on building a website for
stock car racers since that is the profession my future son-in-law is
in.  I also have a job search website (see below) that tells you in
general how to find a job and target your market.  That will be
something you will do after you become trained in the basics of auto
racing.  My son in law learned how to race on his own, but is part of
a family of stock car racers.  I'm sure many of the techniques he
learned were passed down from generation to generation.  Many times he
winds up doing stunts even on the stock car racing track, but he has
learned how to handle the cars he drives.

You could visit the stock car racing tracks and become friendly with
the stock car owners and ask them how they got their start.  Ask if
any of them would know of stock car racers who became stunt drivers or
who would be willing to teach you or train you for free or for a fee.

If not, I found this great source of training schools on the internet
that you can research and apply to for more information.  This source
should provide exactly what you need in learning the basics of stock
car racing first.
