Fall Ultimate Driving School

September 29, 2017 to October 01, 2017
Driving School Format GVC's Ultimate Driving School program offers personal, intensive in-car and classroom instruction on the art and science of high-performance driving to students at all skill levels. Students are assigned to separate run groups of 30-35 students primarily according to experience and evaluations (if any) from previous driving schools, and secondarily on vehicle performance. Run groups at this event include Intermediate, Advanced, and Solo (Group S; see below*). Note: To accommodate the club races, novice/beginner students are not accepted at this school. However, novices may attend our half-day Taste of the Track experience at the Glen on Sunday afternoon (http://www.gvc-bmwcca.org/EventView?EventID=384). Except for Group S, in which drivers are coached by a small team of specialized GS instructors, each student is assigned his/her own highly-trained driving instructor. Between track sessions, students attend run group classroom sessions led by a senior instructor, tailored to their experience level. Students are also encouraged to ride with instructors during the instructor track sessions. The overarching goal is to rapidly improve your driving skills within a fun, friendly, and safe environment. If you are a regular at our schools, you may skip the rest of this section and jump directly to the registration page by scrolling to the bottom and pressing the "continue" button. Don't forget to read the waivers (I know; we had to ask) and check the little boxes before hitting "continue". Friday: Open track for Instructors, Group S drivers (those with either "Friday add-on" or "Friday ONLY" option) Saturday and Sunday: • Group 3: Intermediate (C, less experienced B; SLIP L2 – L3) • Group 2: Advanced (experienced B, A; SLIP L3 – L4) • Group 1: Group S (Solo; SLIP L4 and up) • Group 0: Instructors (Expert; SLIP L5 and up) Schedule • Track goes “green” at 8:30 AM each day.
