Ron Fellows question
I got my confirmation letter today and it indicated I needed special driving shoes? What is that all about? What did you guys and gals that attended wear? I figured my running shoes would be good enough. What do you think?

Not necessary at all. Running shoes are 100% okay. Thinner is better, just don't wear wide soled clunky shoes.

I just got my confirmation letter today too. What dates are you registered for? I'm going March 21/22.

I wanna do this but the only person I know I could possibly do it with is my dad and I think his $1k coupon expires soon. Will they fudge the date a little or are you screwed on whatever the expiration date says?

I believe you can do this class independently. You do not need to attend with a recent buyer.

You have a year from date of purchase to make your reservation for the school.....the school date can be another 6 or 8 months out. Speak to Darci @ 800.391.6891, she is very easy to work with. Hope you can make it work with your dad.

That would be very cool, wish I could have had the same opportunity.

I was told the coupon is transferable to immediate family only. I have a neighbor who was not going to use his. I asked the school if I could and they said no. :-(

I have a couple pairs of Pilotis I wore at SM 4 years ago,but Puma makes a several great shoes that could work. Look for a lightweight, narrow show with a rounded heel. I've seen many instructors wearing Chuck Taylors.

The coupon comes in the booklet that GM sends you after your purchase. We bought our car in August 2015 and just got our packet last week. We already took the Spring Mountain class. You can call Spring Mountain with your VIN. They have a database and can sign you up without a coupon.
