The track is pretty big so I'm wondering if riding a 750 in big enough or should a ride a 1000. Maybe I should just do both and see which I like better. Anyway, the school is only one day. I hope I learn a lot and have fun. I wanna go fast!

Not sure what your question is, whether or not to do the school or to ride a 750 or the 1000. I'm a coach with the California Superbike School so my suggestion would be to take a riding school (you were mentioning Team Hammer) and ride whatever you are most comfortable on. Then, the purpose shouldn't be to just RIDE fast but to ride well and improve. Speed will come with good technique not the other way round. I often have people ask me how to go fast and I say, do the drills, be a good student, work on improving your riding in a steady controlled manner and your speed will ramp up as well.
