Talking Corvette vs. Radical

I attended Spring Mountain back in April and had such a great time that I took up the schools offer and left a deposit on one of there other schools, either the “Radical” or the level 2 “Corvette” School. I need to deicide which one to attend. I was thinking that the level 2 Corvette school would be the most beneficial but how often do you get to drive a purpose build racecar for 2 days. I am looking for opinions and discussion from those that had actually done one or both of these schools and those that just want to throw in their two cents. Thanks

Do both? I did that in spring of '05. I had a terrible time fitting in the Radical (I'm 6'5") but is was so much faster than a Z06 around the corners it was crazy.

No, I did not get any video. I finally had to stop driving the Radical as I was so uncomfortable that I could not concentrate on driving. Zippycar may have a video of his school days.

Marc, I don't think Tom posted the video. You can try to PM him to see if he can find it for you.

YouTube - Radical School
I took quick look to see whether I had posted a little clip from spring moutain radical school, I mounted my camera using their mounting bracket, I had a few editing issues but here it is anyway.
