Chevrolet and Ron Fellows Offering New Corvette Stingray Course at Spring Mountain

Here’s some great news for C7 Corvette owners who want to experience the full capabilities of the 7th generation sports car in a safe environment.

Chevrolet and the Ron Fellows Performance Driving School at Spring Mountain Motorsports Ranch are offering a special two day program for $1,000 for new 2014 Corvette Stingray owners – a discount of $1,500 off the rate for the standard program.

The two-day course has been designed for drivers of all skill levels by Corvette Racing legend Ron Fellows.

“We designed the Corvette Stingray to make its owners better drivers through technologies such as the Driver Mode Selector, Active Rev Match, electronic limited-slip differential and more,” said Tim Mahoney, chief marketing officer, global Chevrolet. “Through the Ron Fellows Performance Driving School, they’ll learn to make the most of its technologies and delve deeper into the Corvette’s capabilities, resulting in a more exciting and fulfilling driving experience.”

The discount is available to all new Corvette Stingray owners and is good for up to one year from the retail purchase of the car. Only one attendee per vehicle is eligible for the discount and it applies to original owners only. Attendees are responsbile for their owner travel and accommodations.

“We are proud to be the official high-performance driving school for Chevrolet and the Corvette Stingray,” said Fellows. “Our goal is to ensure every driver leaves with enhanced driving skills, more confidence on the street and track and, most of all, a deeper understanding of his or her Corvette’s capabilities and how to safely enjoy the car to the fullest.”

The Ron Fellows Performance Driving School has a fleet of Corvette Stingrays used for instruction so owners can leave their personal Stingrays at home. The course will allow owners to spend extensive time driving the new Stingray on Spring Mountain’s 2.2 mile road course in Pahrump, Nevada. Three levels of instruction will cover novices to those with experience on the track.

“It’s more than simply going fast and learning when to turn and apply the throttle,” said Fellows. “Mind speed and decision-making are key elements in the high-performance world, and our car control exercises and on-track training will help drivers improve their ability to process information quickly and accurately, resulting in a better coordination of eyes, hands and feet to improve their driving skill. It’s great fun – and drivers will definitely challenge their limits to find the limits of the new Stingray.”
