TPM usually runs 3 groups: Novice, Intermediate, and Advanced. A 4th group is added when there is a large ART 1 class (Advanced Rider Training), Track Day Girl group, or when there is a lot of people in one group (which is rare).
ART 1 class is usually combined with the Novice group. Those taking the class usually wear a vest and have classroom time throughout the day in between track sessions. While on the track you follow behind the coaches for most of the morning. Then you are cut loose during the afternoon.
Renting the bike from them is a really good deal. Just be prepared to put down a deductible for insurance, which I believe is $1k. You can also rent gear, though you have to bring your own helmet.
