Default Spring Mountain Driving School

I just returned from 3 days of unreal instruction and intense driving at Spring Mountain Advanced Driving School. I took the Level 1 course and learned many new things and was able to break old habits that I have learned over the past several driving events....

My weakest point was heal-toe downshifts and now I have it nailed!

The folks at Spring Mtn are top notch! Dave, Jordan, Vic, Kevin and JJ are awesome instructors and great folks! Janet, Dave P, and the ladies behand the scenes were all wonderful to deal with and are great supporters of the NCM.

My best lap time was 1:56. We ran the 2.2 mile track.

Thanks to all the folks at Spring Mtn! If you have the chance to take their school DO IT! You will do yourself a huge favor and learn alot from what they have to teach.

I was there in mid-October for Level 1 and agree with Adam's comments. The facility and personnel are excellent and are really focused on the student learning and having a fantastic experience. Sub 2:00 time is excellent, bravo Solo Boca!

Thanks Adam. It was great seeing you at the track. I knew that you would love Spring Mountain once you finally got here.

Your 1:56 is a very respectable time on the 2.2 mile track. Solo Boca will now be even faster at the NCM HPDEs. Keep practicing the heel/toe exercises and watch your lap times come down even more.

See you in April.
