Default What would be most benefitial to a driver?

During the weekend of June 28th there is a driving school @ Moroso (in South FL.) with Chin Motorsports, and a school at Roebling Road with Porsche Owners Club that same weekend. My question is:

Would I benefit more to drive Moroso which I have never driven before, or run Roebling Road which I have run 3 times before and perfect my skillz there?

Both schools cost the same ~$300, and Chin offers about 5 HOURS of track time in 1 day (its a 1 day school, not 2 like POC), as POC offers "Loads of track time" over 2 days. Moroso is about 1 hour closer to my house than RR (3 instead of 4 hrs.... this really isnt a factor though.) Your opinions please!

Go to Moroso.

I love roebling, I have been there 50+ times, and there is always something to learn....but go drive the new track, have fun and focus on learning the new track. Expand your skill-set.

edit: that is my birthday, so whichever you choose you have to drink beer...that is the price of my advice

I second that. All else being (roughly) equal, try the new track.

Thanks for the replies... I also think it makes sense to expland the number of tracks I have driven. Would anyone offer different advice?

While on the topic of Moroso, does anyone have any in-car footage from there?

Yea I did take a look at the 2 clips on Chin's site. From what I can see, it looks like a pretty cool track.
