Hi All,

Just got back from the Ron Fellows / Spring Mountain Corvette Owner's School. If you have an opportunity to do this with the purchase of your new 2016 or 2017 Vette - DO IT!!! I can't say enough about the school. The facility, staff, amenities, accommodation - all 5 star. It is definitely Disneyland for Corvette owners!

+1 can't agree more!!
Looks like you had some good weather in Pahrump.

We had awesome weather in the mid 70's although we had to delay one morning because it was only 29F at 6:45 when we went for breakfast. What an amazing experience though. I've been driving (fast!) for many years and used to race 30 years ago. This course opened my eyes so much, I'm a much better driver now than before.

Glad you had great weather. I was there last Fri-Sat (Feb 17-18), and we had very different weather!! It rained both days - here's a look at running the track in the rain:



It was actually very good to have the great Spring Mt instructors giving you tips on driving a slightly different wet line - one main thing was to stay off the painted curbing areas.

During the Rolex 24 this year they ran about 10 hours of the race in the rain!!

It wasn't bad running with the windows closed, but most track events make you run with the windows open, so you and the interior of the car get all wet. If it rains at events in the future, and I can run with the windows closed, I plan to get out on the track in wet conditions. Unfortunately there's only one HPDE organization that I run with each year that allows closed windows, and that's the event at Daytona each year in Dec.

So cool in the rain...great job in real world conditions...makes everyone who watches this have a real appreciation for what the C7 on basically stock tires can do...again...great job!!

I went in Dec just after Christmas and could not agree more. Everything was first class and the instructors were awesome. I really would like to plan another trip back this was best time in a car in a very long time.

Hi James, Nope had Z51's for both days because that is what I have at home. I sent you a private message too re our PDR recordings. Cheers,
Dan

Cheaper just to pay the full price of the school than to buy another C7.
