Given that my father-in-law wants to take me, his son, and himself to a driving school, which one should we attend?

I'm an intermediate-level DE track driver. I've built a 930-powered 911S longhood (from the crank up) and DE'd about a dozen times at Thunderhill and Sears Point. I consider myself to be an average-level DE driver with a fast car, but one who is not aggressive enough to ever be a competitive racer. I have a fascination with fixing machines but not a killer racer's instincts....

My brother-in-law is a 30-year-old with a Miata and a WRX. He has never done any track work but reads Car and Driver religiously. Want to know how much horsepower a '95 993 has? He's your man....

My father-in-law is a 60-something guy who has an appreciation for straight-line acceleration, but has never taken a corner at more that 50%. He owns a Chevy Impalla SS and always buys the highest-horsepower variant of whatever car he's buying that year.

NOW, knowing the background, and knowing that I want to promote family unity over lap times, (because I can work on faster lap times at PCA DEs but will not be able to bond with my Father in Law at DEs), what driving school should we attend?
