I learned of it on the forum, and as I recall, had scheduled the course before I got the announcement. It took several months after purchase before I got it.

I've had my 2015 for almost 2 months and haven't received an invitation. But I have already signed up for a level 2 class in April and got the discount. You just need to give them a VIN number and you are good to go.

Can a co-owner spouse also take the class at a discount?

No unfortunately. Spouse are at full price, however, spouses can go to the classes and ride along with the instructors. My wife went with me, and even she had an amazing two days there, riding along with the instructors. She went a total of 4 ride alongs.
I have to say, I have only been to one other performance school, and that was 10 years ago, and never thought I would go again because of the price and because that last time, the instructors were a bunch of arrogant 20somethings.
This time was SOOOO MUCH different. The instructors there were incredible. You can tell that they really genuinely want to teach you.
I went 2 weeks ago, not expecting much. However, I have to say, that was among the two most wonderful days of my life! Furthermore, I really did not realize how great the C7 is! I truly appreciate my car and love my car much more now after having going to the course.
It would be a mistake not to take advantage of this discount, folks. If this discount was available all the time, I think I would go every month.

I agree with everything you said. I took the class last week of Oct. Well worth the Money. I did the 3 day, I paid the full price for my wife to do the 2 day. She also loved it and learned a lot. We both plan on going back again. Fantastic instructors.

I was amazed at how capable a car this is. Makes me love it all the more, and now my wife understands why, she never did before she drove one on the track.

These guys are great! I did level 1 and level 2 corvette z51 school without any discount. I also did their 2 day radical school. Awesome venue awsome staff. Worth every penny.
I would suggest extending to the three day course. The first day is a lot of off track exercises, which are helpful, but not as much fun as track time. By the end of day 2, it's all open tracking, then the third day is all open tracking. That's your best bang for your buck.
I shshould receive my zo6 a in early to late February at which time I will enroll. Can't wait
