How long after you bought your 2016 Corvette did it take to receive information on the Ron Fellows Driving School?

You can call and schedule at any time. They will just take your VIN and verify with GM. So, if you have a timeframe you want to go, no need to wait until you get info from GM, and risk missing out on a date that works best for you.

Didn't receive mine until five months after purchase. However, dealer told me I could call anytime with just my vin no. Set to go late August.

CALL NOW!!! Oct is booked for this year (best month to go in the fall). Get a hold of Darci Bolen @ 800.391.6891. She will take your V.I.N. and call you back (in a day or so) after she verifies with GM to set your track date.

Spots still open for the HOT Summer days....you know it's a dry heat

Have fun

Costs you a grand. GM covers $1,600 of the $2,600 two day fee. Includes one night condo stay at the track. Absolutely an unbelievable experience so do not miss it.
