    Yes, it is more than just basics plus it gets you thinking about handling in a more complete car way. The best thing is you get to meet and talk to some other racers who have great info from other parts of the country. The last one I went to was in January 2012.

      For sure... you will definitely be in information overload by the end of the weekend.

            Garrett, how much time is spent on tires (construction, selection, load characteristics)?

              That is a weak/poorest part of the ones I went to.

                A pretty good amount of time. at least an hour or so. They have some pretty handy info in the book you get with the class too.

                    Where exactly is the Midwest school? I've attended a couple at Rocket, but would like to possibly attend the Front Geometry class!

                        I went to both the standard class and the frt end class in 2012. Anyone doing an advanced shock school?
