It's not that I think that the ground school is too boring to go to. Nor that I am 'too good' for ground school. It's just about weekend time. 3 kids to juggle at home so weekend days are at a serious premium for me. There's a reason I haven't made it to a single autocross since April.
GGR Ground school simply turns a 1 day event into 2 days. If ground school was offered on a weekday evening (6-10pm or something), that would make a huge difference for me.

Actually this season it would turn it into a 3 day event. This season all the HSDS was run on Saturday and Sunday. Practice sessions on Sat (4) and then Sunday with 2-3 run sessions for HSDS.
I understand the family thing....for over 10 years I coached soccer, basketball, baseball, and was an official at swim meets, soccer referree. Plus traveling with my daughter that was in high level gymnastics for 12 years
been there, done that....but it is great time you can never replace with the kids. there will always be another AX or DE/TT after they are grown up and want to have nothing to do with you.
