You should really enjoy the school It is the most fun and education for the money that I can remember ever spending. The instructors are great and the way they run the classes allow you to really enjoy the driving experience (you wont spend a lot of time in the classroom). They really move the classroom to the track which worked well for me. Anyway, keep us posted on the class and enjoy.

I was down there for the Level 1 in May. You are going to have a ball. Time in the classroom is minimal and time behind the wheel is some of the best I've ever spent. Enjoy!

I took a Level 1 with family last May and had a blast! Watch out...you'll be hooked.

We had a guy in our class w/ a nice 911. They let him take it out for the last session, so I would guess that you'll be able to run yours as well. Have fun!
