A buddy of mine and me are going out in May to attend this school. They will have 6 Z06 for the class of 10 and the rest will be C5's. Has anyone been? It looks like the best one to have the most lap time possible.

Your comments, thoughts are appreciated.

I took the 3 day B-S level 1 school and can not say enough about it! Definitely do it, and you will have the time of your life.

I went to Bragg-Smith in September for level 1. In March we're taking 10 guys to level 1 and then in the latter part of March I'm going back for level 2. There are so many things that they teach you that you wouldn't even think about. It is a great program.

$1895 and you use their Z06's and C5 and they have a lower cost Camaro course. They don't move their track or cars from Harumpf, Nevada (45 min from Las Vegas)

I took Level 1 last Oct. Highly recommend it! Warning! You may catch road course racing fever! I have now signed myself up for three road course driving school events, East Coast area, before I return for Bragg-Smith Level 2! You may want to check out "Secrets of Solo Racing," by Henry Watts, to get yourself ready to do the heel/toe blip.

I was there in November. I have been to a few other High Performance Racing Schools with instructors and there is no comparison. Bragg-Smith is fantastic. I am going back with another group this Nov for level two. I can't wait to get to Lime Rock in Conn or other local road courses to try what I learned there. Oh, all that was in a 1999 Camaro SS. I can't wait to try it in the Z06.
