Spring Ultimate Driving School #101 at Watkins Glen

Run groups at this school include Novice/beginner (Group 4), Intermediate (Group 3), Advanced (Group 2), Group S (Group 1), and Instructors (Group 0). Groups 1, 2 and 3 are typically limited to 35 cars; Group 4 is capped at no more than 30 to minimize traffic. Other than Group S (an option available only to advanced drivers pre-approved for that group), drivers self-assign to a run group when registering. The Student Registrar reviews the run group selection with the Chief Instructor and makes a "final" assignment based primarily on experience and evaluations (if any). During the school, an instructor may request moving his/her student to a different run group that better matches the student's pace and skill level.
