C7 Muscle, I hear your pain. I myself went with the 2 day over the 3, going through the same thought process as you. Like noname, I figured I could go to my local track and learn on my car for cheaper after the 2 day.

Depending how you look at it, I was un/fortunate because it started to light rain on my day 2. We didn't get to go to our max speed capabilities, but it did expose any weaknesses we had and you learned a little more because of less traction you couldn't mess up apex's and your lines . The best part, was the school decided to give us a credit for DAY 3 on the house! What amazing customer service.

So yes day 3 is a lot more expensive, and we all come from different means and justifications on spending that money. If you can spare the money and you're not just trying to be frugal I'd definitely go for it. I'm definitely not one of the richer guys on this forum. I literally rented out my basement to pay for this car lol. Remember, you're using their cars, rubber, fuel, brakes and insurance for an entire day of hot lapping basically. BEFORE I heard about the free day 3 I was telling the girlfriend how I was regretting not springing for it after realizing what a great facility they have.

They had about 11-12 instructors for a class of only 19 students, the accommodations were on point, the food was descent, and they made my girlfriend love the experience when she came in waiting for it to be over so we can go to vegas. They took her out on the track numerous times and even did donuts in the parking lot when it was wet. If you bring someone, they simply have to show interest and ask. There were other wives there that just sat around didn't do jack. My girlfriend was literally on the track as much as me in the lead car. It's all attitude really. My opinion, do the third day.

P.S. Hopefully my point of view helped your decision either way. If you could, please tell them when you register that Adam Zimmermann aka Kyle Larson's look a like referred you. They give a $100 finders fee which I could hopefully put towards Level 2 at some point next year once I save up. I can do the same for you if you decide to ever go back. Thanks a lot,
