Default SRT Driving Experience

Has anyone registered or participated in the SRT Experience training day that is included in the cost of the Challenger SRT?

Yes,
Was at Vegas, it was awesome. I only have two regrets. 1) drive the vipers like you stole it, don't leave anything on the table 2) pair up with someone fast on the road course or else the ride around the track will be somewhat boring. If yor tires aren't squealing through every corner then you might not be driving fast enough. The esp will save you so don't worry.

You make a couple of good points 70sguy. A second opportunity would have me thinking a bit more aggressively too...

Thanks for the replies. I am waiting information on the 2009 schedule and locations. Hopefully there will be one fairly close, but I will travel if necessary. Sounds like some fun.

Thanks OrangeCrushSRT8 for asking the question and for those that responded to it.

During the buying process of my recent 2008 Dodge Challenger SRT8 I was advised by the selling dealer that Dodge would be sending me material concerning a "Dodge Sponsored" visit with my Challenger to the Watkins Glen Raceway being that I am in the northeast of these United States... that was in July 2008...

As of this date... 20 January 2009, I have not heard a word on this subject and the dealer now tells me "We have nothing to do with this, it's up to Dodge" hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm .

Have you had any advisement yet?

Pete

Pete, I believe the new schedule comes out in February. Many forum members met last year in Vegas and I understand had a great time meeting other forum members and of course, driving all types of SRT's.

Challeygirl was going to advise us of the new sessions when they are published and there was talk of the forum members meeting again at a different location. I am waiting for the info also and am sure it will make it here as soon as someone hears something for sure.
