I've found Car Guys Inc, but am also looking for more schools on the east coast that are non-cca (even though I'm a bmwcca member).
What else is out there, I need something to do this spring!!!
Thanks! :)

Keep in mind that the way driving school days varties widely from club to club. BMWCCA and PCA schools are on the conservative and of safety while I have heard of one of the above mentioned clubs referred to as "russian roulette" in a car. Contact the club and ask lots of question about instructor qualifications, run group classifications, etc.

The Bmwcca driving school events are usally cheaper than any other clubs. If you want cheaper you can attend time trials, but there are no instructors available. If you have little to no experience stay away from time trials, you could end up getting hurt.

I'm guessing you get more track time than bmwcca events since the price is higher on these non-bmwcca events. correct?

;) Here's two sites that list track events for you!
www.trackschedule.com
www.opentracking.com
Both sites show many events at different tracks sponsored by a variety of car clubs. Good luck and Cya @ the track.

Trackschedule.com rocks! Coco, the woman who runs that site, is a blast to hang out with at the track. I'm going to the Darkside school at Roebling in early May thanks to trackschedule.com. Anyone else attending?

I'm in the Black run group with Coastal Empire so I'm sure I'd get into the Fri. lapping day at Roebling. I considered it but I've got lots of stuff to do in Savannah that weekend including attending a wedding. As of right now, I will probably have to shower and change into a jacket and tie at the track to make it to the church on time.
