Default Spring Mountain Corvette School




I can't say enough good things about the 2 day Corvette owner's school at Spring Mountain. I just got back from the school and the facility, instructors, cars and everything were top notch. If any of you have the chance as an owner of a new Corvette to attend the school, you really should. It was so much fun, I couldn't stop smiling the entire 2 days!

I had to have a helmet waiver, I couldn't fit in the car with the helmet on - too tall. This worked for the 2 day Corvette school, but I don't think it's an option for Level 1 or Level 2. The only other thing I could try would be to find a helmet that is not as tall as the Bell helmets they use in the school.

As part of your purchase of a new Vette, you can take the 2-day "Corvette Owner's School" for a subsidized price of $1000, as long as you book the class within one year of taking delivery of your new Vette:

I'm hoping to go in May this year, myself! Need to get the details worked out and get it booked.

Did the class this past December and it was the best 2 days ever. Learned a ton and had a ton of fun. The instructors are truly the best

They put you in what you own for the two day school. Manual or automatic, they have Z06, Stingrays and Grand Sports. They must have close to 40 Corvettes.
