Has anyone attended the Lincoln Motorsports welding schools? I am considering signing up for both the basic and advanced schools.

I took an earlier version of the Motorsports class in January 1999. We had instruction on steel tubing, chromoly tubing, and aluminum. We even had a chance to weld thick aluminum with DC straight using helium. All the pieces were pre cut and in big bins. Tubing was coped ready to weld. I would grab a bunch of metal and weld. Practice practice practice.I really enjoyed it.
We had part time in the class and time at the welding stations. They had a standard welding school going on at the area next to us. We had a small class of six. There were 24 stations to weld at. I don't know if it is anything like when I took the class.
They have a great facility and are good people. We received a tour of the plant too. They have a cafeteria on site since the place is pretty big. There is no way to go to lunch and come back in a short amount of time.
