Yeah, there is a 3 day level 1 but it is only offered for full price... I asked if I could add a third day onto the new owners course but was told the new owners course is now kept separate and only offered as a 2 day.

Will probably do what you are doing with a day 3 refresher before level 2 at a later time.

I was lucky I guess... When I did my Level 1 owners course they allowed me to add day 3 so I've done it once already. It was the best part of Level 1 and really allowed me to put in practice what I had learned on Day 1 and 2. Too bad they don't offer that anymore.

I'm really looking forward to my dates on Nov. 24-25th (just before American Thanksgiving) anyone else going on those dates?

I'm planning to go those days, Nov 24-25th

It is supposed to be a one year limit but they granted me a 10 month extension.

Completed the course this week and throughly enjoyed it. I think the facility and instructors were top notch. Having no prior track experience this was a great experience for me and I highly recommend the course. It makes me want to return for another level in the future.

I believe it applies to all new corvettes, but give Spring Mountain a call with your VIN and verify. They are at 775 727 6363.

I'm booked for February and have a condo in Vegas for the week. Does one night of onsite lodging come with the registration when taking the 2 day course?

Yes, you get one night lodging at the track. You can pay for another night at the track for something like $130.00 per night. If you don't stay the night before, the class begins at 8 am, so you need to check in by 7:30 am. Classes are over at 4 pm

Roger that. I will drive over from our condo in Vegas for the first morning and will probably stay at the resort for one night. I used to visit Pahrump when working on the Yucca Mountain Nuclear Waste Project for DOE. Will be interested to see if things have changed since the project has been put on hold. Looking forward to being able to see just how much performance these C7s can put out. I've only had the guts to open mine up one time getting on the interstate and I was doing 90 so fast my sphincter didn't loosen up for about 3 miles.
