MINI Cooper Performance Driving School! Anyone attend this?

I was going over the several videos I have of Phil Wicks MINI Driving/AMVIV at Spring Mt, I started looking online to see how the Ron Fellows Vette and Lotus Challence drivers run the course. And I found several videos of a MINI Cooper Performance Driving School! Anyone attend this?
It seemed sort of like a cross between a BMWCCA Car Control Clinic and BMWCCA Auto-X School, cause they ran through cones and stuff. I Googled it and found this thread:

I've heard mixed reviews about the Phil Wicks driving school when talking about the upcoming event at AMVIV.

If you're interested in a day at Spring Mountain, I bet we could twist Jerry's arm and have him put together a track day there for us Mini folks?

Having Jerry in the right seat did more for me then even I could imagine!

I'd be happy to track day with Jerry at Willow Springs or Buttonwillow, just with some notice. I totally missed the ButtonWillow one and can't make Laguna Seca. I like phil wicks' ones cause I can shedule it in several months before and its the same time every year, same with bmwcca ggcs' Laguna Seca every December 31st.
