Chevrolet announced this week that U.S. customers who purchase any model of
a new Corvette through February 28 can receive free tuition at either of the two
official Corvette driving schools.
This unique benefit marks the upcoming
Corvette Racing season in the American LeMans Series, and adds to an unmatched
set of experiences available to Corvette owners.
Until now, the Corvette
Driving School offer has been a benefit limited to the purchase of the exclusive
Corvette ZR1 "supercar" model. For a limited time, it is available to buyers of
any new Corvette model, from the Coupe and Convertible, to the Grand Sport and
Z06 models.
Chevrolet's official driving schools are the Bob Bondurant
School of High Performance Driving near Phoenix and the Ron Fellows Performance
Driving School at Spring Mountain Motorsports Ranch outside Las Vegas.
"This special offer extends an exclusive piece of the Corvette driving
experience to new owners," says Jim Campbell, U.S. vice president of performance
vehicles and motorsports. "Corvette owners have experiences open to them unlike
any others, from touring the plant and National Corvette Museum, to advanced
driver training, and even building their own engine."
Buyers have one
year from their delivery date to take advantage of the opportunity. Eligible
customers are responsible for their own accommodations and travel, but receive
access to the schools and two-day tuition for free. Customers who purchase a new
Corvette ZR1 model during the program period will receive an additional third
day of tuition.
