[Avejoe]

Bondurant Driving School has added CTS-V's to it's stable of ZO6's, I'm going in May .

I also heard that the Lindbergh baby was taken. (If you're wondering about the sarcasm this is already a thread that was started by Chef back on 12/20/06 Good News...Bondurant To Get "V"'s... LINK)

I'm going in April now, and I'll let U know how it go's. I live near Limerock Ct. (Vipers) and flying to Arizona just for the V's

I'm confirmed April 2nd & 3rd, any chance you'll be down there then.

No, I'll be getting there on the 19th . But, let me know what ya find ! Can't wait

Avejoe,
Be sure you understand the V’s are only used in the Advanced Driving Course which is a highway oriented class not a road racing class as such there is no open track time.
A few minutes of lead follow on the track with your instructor but the vast majority of time is spent doing exercises / drills in the parking lot.
Not that is a bad thing just make sure you understand the course.
Are you also aware you will not be driving ZO6’s?
I’m going back for my 6th or 7th time (I have lost count) March 26-27. Regardless of what class you take you will learn a ton and have a blast!
Have fun.
-Bill

Thanks for the heads up, This trip is a gift, from my sweetie !! I'll start working on the 2nd trip, when I get back !

What a great gift. My wife did the same for me for my first stint. I went back for my second time two weeks later.
You are going to have a great time!

Are you staying at Chef’s place (Sheraton Wild Horse Pass Resort and Spa)?
If not I HIGHLY recommend you do. It is right “across the street” and needless to say the food is amazing.
Also if you are not booked already make sure to call the resort directly between 9-5 PST M-F, don’t use the 800 number, ask for inside reservations and ask for the Bondurant rate. It is a huge discount over the regular rates.

I could go on but I don’t want to spoil your adventure.

Enjoy
-Bill

I will take a look at the V's while I'm there, I'm signed up for the Advanced Road Racing course and they offer race prepared Cobra Mustang SVT's or you could upgrade to a Formula Bondurant. Given the choice I'll stick with the Mustang. I'm getting excited.

I'll be there the 19th and 20th. My wife say's, "It better be one bad ass parking lot and case itsnot, I'm packing them, the caution tape"!

“Parking Lot” was not the best choice of words.

“Multi-Acre Paved Training Facility” is a more accurate description.

Please let your wife know it IS one hellova “Parking Lot” and you WILL graduate with skills very few possess.

How great the weather is in AZ? It was 93 degrees the other day, too hot. Hope it's in the mid 70's in 2 weeks.
