can anyone comment on the evo schools? better, worse, different than the scca ones. given the choice between spending money on one school, would you pick scca or evo? i've taken level 1 and 2 with scca and would love to take level 2 again. first time i took it, i was an extreme newbie and most of the instruction was over my head. still a newbie but thinking that i should be able to take more in now with another year of autox under my belt. or should i spend my money on evo?

Different.

Given that you have already taken the SCCA ones I would take the evo one just to see the difference.

I took the EVO school a couple of years ago. Enjoyed it quite a bit, and left faster than I entered. Mine was free, as a friend had a last minute business trip. Still, I would have happily paid for the course. Actually, I am thinking of taking the level II class.

I'd say it's different. I felt like I learned a lot, though I'm not sure how much of it I internalized. The class I took was in NJ, so it may be somewhat different from what gets offered here.

I'll probably sign up. After all, since you are running STR, I can't let you get an advantage.

However, I want to wait a bit before spending the money. The school isn't until the end of may, so why pay for it now?

It might fill up. These have traditionally been a big deal.

Excellent. Now let's discuss a prime piece of Nevada real estate I might be able to offer you.

Is there a bridge? Or a pyramid? How about a scale model of the Elfie Tower? I could be interested.

Yes both are listed as Fedex.
The schools use a different lot than the events do. Less space is needed for the schools to run than for your typical course.
