Back from Spring Mtn! WOW!
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.

Adam...Very cool! There is nothing better than getting hands-on instruction. And there is nothing more addictive than running on a road course. I am finally getting a roll bar installed, so maybe we will meet up at one of the HDPE events.

Good endorsement, Adam. Some day I hope to take advantage of that school.

I think that everyone who's attended that school is hooked. It was one of the best "vacations" I've ever taken.

I have been fortunate enough to run in several HPDEs and was hooked before the first one!
This school was so much fun! They really focused on heel toe downshifts, keeping your eyes moving, smoothness, and safety.
It was a great time!

Took the course last year and have been returning for Corvette Track Days almost every time.
BTW, you forgot Ken.
He took me driving the most! (Thanks Ken!)
Spring Mt Rocks!
Good thing they have Viper days too!!
