everybody i've talked to says that reg's class is more street oriented.

...That being said, would you recommend it to a mostly street rider looking to go to the track in the very near future?

My main complaint was the fact that all Reg really likes to do is ramble, about himself. Think war stories. His 'course' doesn't offer a curriculum (especially compared to California Superbike School). Towards the middle of the day, I skipped the 'lecture' and just used it like a regular track day - only more expensive.

That said, IMO there is no such thing as bad track time.

Lastly, I recommend taking a host of different courses. that way you can get a host of different 'opinions' about best practices. They vary widely. Once you have all of the information, you can pick and choose what works best for you. I did walk away with a very important piece of information regarding race lines that I would never have without my experience at CLASS. The rest went into the trash.
