If someone asks you for the info, send it to them directly.

You can create an email list for evolution announcements (using a 
free server such as onelist or yahoo) so that folks that want to hear 
about the new schools can hear about them.

Start a web page (this is fairly easy no matter what you tech level 
if you buy the right software package), you are an AOL user, I 
believe you can host it there for free.  Advertise your web site in 
your signature when you post topic related responses (this is how I 
advertise my wife's book)

No one is questioning how effective the school is. 52% or trophies is 
good.  This has NO bearing on weather or not the post is spam.  What 
if Kumho or Hoosier posted build numbers of their tires weekly and 
talked about how many trophies they won?

The delete key is NOT the answer to spam, not sending it is. What 
would Team.Net be like if GRM and Pylon got into a "buy my product" 
war?  They both have a presence on Team.Net, both, IMHO, are 
acceptable.

I agree with Loren, sorry.  (And this is nothing against your school, 
I plan to take one as soon as a Miata shows up in my driveway.)  You 
have a very specific product and a very specific customer base, MORE 
specific than Team.Net, you are targeting the autocrossers who want 
to take a school, NOT the group of autocrossers.   Team.Net does NOT 
want your posts, but many, many autocrossers do want it.  Think of 
all the spam the Rocky and Byron have put out for the autocrossing 
products they sell, not much, huh?  Both of them only respond to 
specific, public, requests for the product.  And I don't see such 
requests for your product.
