After a week of waiting, Darci confirmed that GM is going to extend my certificate beyond a year and let me participate at the discounted price.
I'm heading down in December for the 19th and 20th. Short little vacation before Xmas.
Can't wait.
Thanks for everyone's input. I'll drop some photos when I complete the course.
Cheers.

Did the school in November 2015 and it is fabulous; very professional and lots of fun! My wife came with me and rode with the instructors, quite the experience which she really enjoyed. Only problem is that now I want to go back, which at full price is costly! Enjoy!

Was going to go in Jan as they have a sweet deal going on right now - but I really wanted to drive down there as I haven't been on a road trip since the '80's LOL
So I don't know why Cdn dealers don't tell their customers about it - 2 days at a 1st class track for $1000USD? Can't be beat -

Great venue
Hi,
Back from Ron Fellows event. All I can say is that it was well worth the money. As they put it...."The car is the classroom"... Learning to track your car in a controlled environment was excellent. Seeing what these cars can do with professional drivers was also amazing...
If you're thinking about going....GO.
Here's a shot of me from the professional photographer on the last day.

Please pass along the information .. Canadians are entitled to the driving school with the purchase of your new C7. We were not sent anything by GM and I went online to chat with GM Canada.
Your discount is for a year from the date you take delivery of your car. GM extended ours to cover the 3 months we were not informed (and still did not receive anything from GM Canada). Understand there is now a new brochure that is to go in the glove box of each new Corvette sold in Canada.
The driving school is terrific with great instruction. There are condos you can rent for 2 nights when available. If your guest doesn't want to drive, they can sit in on the classes, go for a ride along with the instructors, go to the gym or pool. There is also a great massage therapist (Tina) but book in advance.
2-Day Program*
Available for new Stingray, Grand Sport and Z06 owners and designed for drivers of all experience levels.
Over $1500 savings! $1000 USD
**Canadians must call Spring Mountain direct as our VIN #s are not entered into the system
