Can't tell you about the Z06 Experience (they didn't have it when I went), but Bondurant is a first rate outfit.

I took the 4 day grand prix road racing course at Bondurant 3 years ago and had a blast flogging the cobras and formula Fords. It was an incredible experience that I would do again in a heartbeat, especially now that they use the Z06 vettes! It's pricey, but money well spent if you are into pushing a car to its limits.

I too did a 4 day course at Bondurant. The final race in the cobras was awesome and I learned alot. I know the instructors so if I was to take my ZO6 they might let me take it on the track for free.

I did the three day High Performance course in '98.

Bondurant runs a top notch operation. When you slip in
for class time, the Bondurant gnomes go over the cars.
It was not uncommon for student to warp the disks by
waiting with brakes applied afer coming to a stop. In
the time they took for a class, the gnomes would have
switched out the rotors.

Don't party at night, you'll need your energy for driving.
