I HAVE NEVER DRIVEN IN A RACETRACK, IS THIS TOO ADVANCED FOR ME?

Quite the contrary!

This is designed to be a memorable, first-time experience in one of the greatest racing tracks in the World.

Numerous factors and steps are taken to ensure a safe, incident-free experience:

You be assigned a personal instructor sitting in the right-seat guiding you step-by-step through your drive with total priority on safety and comfort.

Your personal driving instructor is highly adept working with all skill levels: You will be able drive at your own pace and comfort level.

IS THIS SAFE?

Yes, our driving events take place in a highly controlled environment in a world-class track and under the tutelage of highly experienced pro-driving instructors.

Among the safety features: Ample, speed-reducing runoff areas in all turns, Flag-posts along the 3.4-mile course with instant-response crews, turn-by-turn video monitoring by the most experienced race officials in the business.

Additionally, the maximum number of cars for our event is limited to 20, in a track designed to run up to 120+ cars - so on-track traffic will be minimal.

WILL THIS EXERT EXCESSIVE WEAR TO MY CAR?

Our 60-minute session is unlikely to bring a noticeable level of wear-we will follow a crawl-walk-run approach with focus on bedding-in your new Porsche and your own learning process.

As you hone your skills with subsequent instructor-led track sessions - speeds will naturally increase and then, wear will become a factor to consider.

We have designed this event to properly break-in your new Porsche with guidance from your personal Driving Instructor: your engine, transmission, suspension, brakes, and tires require a progressive method which works very well in concert with your learning process.
