I just got back from the Bondurant 4 day Grand Prix course and it was an unbelieveable experience. They are still using the Mustangs and will be for a few more weeks. Since some people are waiting for the Vettes, there were only 3 guys in my class. We had a blast! There was some introductory classroom time before each exercise but mostly we were driving. I thought I knew how to drive before this, but I was wrong. With the Mustangs and the Formula Fords, most of the time was on the track but we also did some autocross just to mix things up. With only three of us we each went through the course 8 times with no waiting in between. Driving the Formula Ford was a real eye opener. The rear engine makes handling a bit different but the tires really stick to the track. It is either full throttle while running through the gears or applying brake for the next turn. There is no in-between.
The whole school is absolutely first class. The cars are very well maintained. and the instructors are as good as I could imagine. I'm planning to go back.
