I need to get signed up here before the end of the year or early 2020. ;-)
I've gone to the COS twice, yes your wife can attend the class with you and ride with the instructors. She wont get behind the wheel, but since she owns a Vette, the classroom instruction would be quite beneficial to her.

That would work great!
In 2006 I was lucky enough to be sent to the Ricard Petty deal in Vegas and got 4 stints of 9 laps in one of there cars and later that year she did a 3 lap ride along with instructor on a Vegas trip.

I visited the facility in May of this year. I have relatives in Pahrump so just stopped by on the way to visit there. Looks like an incredible place and a first class experience. I hope to be able to attend the COS before my discount expires on 22 Feb 2020. I was planning to go before November of this year but unfortunately had to start chemo for MDS two weeks ago which really screwed up that plan. Hopefully I will be past that later this year. By the way, I was dealing with Jennifer (member of their sales staff). If any of you don't have a contact yet, she is outstanding.
