By General Motors, Oshawa, Ontario - Chevrolet in Canada is now helping owners get the most from their new Corvette Stingray through the Ron Fellows Performance Driving School. The two-day program has been made available to Canadian 2014 Corvette Stingray owners for $1,000 US - a $1,500 reduction from the standard rate.
Developed and managed by legendary Corvette race Ron Fellows, the performance-driving curriculum at Spring Mountain Motor Resort and Country Club in Pahrump, Nevada accommodates drivers of all skill levels.
"We designed the Corvette Stingray to make its owners better drivers through technologies such as the Driver Mode Selector, Active Rev Match, elecontric 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 from Chevrolet is good for one year from the retail purchase of a new Corvette Stingray and applies only to the original owner. Only one attendee per vehicle is eligible for the discount. Attendees are responsible for the cost of travel and accommodations.
Owners do not have to bring their personal Stingray to Pahrump. The school uses a fleet of Corvette Stingrays for instruction.
"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."
Along with class instruction, participants will spend extensive time driving the Stingray on Spring Mountain's world-class 2.2-mile road course where three levels of instruction cover novice track drivers to those with more experience.
"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 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."
Fellows is recognized as one of North America's most versatile and successful road-racing drivers. A charter member of Corvette Racing, Fellows was part of historic Corvette Racing victories at the Rolex 24 at Daytona, the 24 Hours of Le Mans and 12 Hours of Sebring. In 2011, Fellows was inducted into the Corvette Hall of Fame, located at the National Corvette Museum in Bowling Green, Kentucky.
