Did you do or are doing V academy

Try 110F in July. I live in the Arizona desert. If you're not familiar with dehydration, if you go too far you can’t catch up and rest is all that fixes it. You drink water when you’re not thirsty because your body won’t know until it’s too late.

I did Corvette Owner's School the first week of July in 2020. Average high's were in the 120°F. It'll be fine, the cars and buildings have air conditioning.

As long as it's not Afghanistan/Iraq hot, I'm good. Oh, I won't be getting shot at? Killer time (no pun).

No, but there is a very large firearms training center down the road a bit.

But dehydration will result in weight reduction, like a biologic Weissach package.

Geez, I thought that was a colonic irrigation procedure until I looked it up.

In my case I just get a headache and nausea. I take salt tablets in the summer. More unfortunate people who visit here die.

I love that reference

I did the class with Ford Performance in Charlotte in August and was good to go. The class in July is the only one that made sense with everything else going on in life, so I'll take being able to go over not.

I'll be fine. I'm a very typical person. Hope the car is!

My son and I will also be there July 5 - 6. I would have preferred spring or fall, but fitting it into my son’s schedule was more important. We’re coming from Phoenix, so the weather will be familiar to us.

Got 3rd in the Autox fast group, just 0.4 seconds behind 1st. Another round of track time would have been great because it was all starting to gel in my brain and I was getting more comfortable. Still got in the 1:22 range on the North loop of the track, could have easily taken another second or so off.

Signed up for the May 29-30 class. Looking forward to the HEAT!! I live in Texas and actually turned the HEAT and fireplace ON this past weekend LOL!!! Some folks don't do well with the heat, that's true. I've had students that could only last in a car for barely 20 minutes during a Summer track session here in Texas (windows down, nice and hot)...was BIG at the time (maybe that's why? LOL) and I'd get out, helmet still on, balaclava, gloves, etc, walk through the paddock, say high to people, no worries....sure, 100 plus outside...but it's not FREEZING LOL!!

Man, I was driving with A/C on max and was sweating by end of track time I am coming from northern NY though. I am going for a quick cruise since the roads are clear here, but an inch of snow coming tomorrow

I was getting super toasty towards the end, then I remembered it has ventilated seats ha.

I'm flying to Vegas tomorrow for class on Wed/Thur of this week. I really wish for a carbon brakes, manual 2025 with upgraded seats *fingers crossed*. Anybody else scheduled this week? April 9th-10th.

So how do I find out about this event now that I’m a new 5BW owner? I wonder if it matters that I registered it through my business.

Everyone knows how to do the poor man’s race harness with the three point seatbelt, right?

Only a few auto '25s I saw available. Easy to get manual with carbon brakes through.

My 25 5BW is owned by my business and I was approved through GM so you should be good to.
I emailed ashley@racespringmountain.com for details.

Hey all, I could use some help. I finally got my ‘25 CT5 BW today. When I asked about the V-Performance Academy the salesman had no idea what I was talking about, and the owner of the dealership said I had to sign up via the Cadillac website. I don’t see anywhere on the site to do any such thing. What am I missing and how do I go about signing up? Any suggestions would be appreciated!
