Primal Motorsports: 2‑Day Performance School

Developed by Drivers, for Drivers.

This isn’t a lapping day - it’s a professional-grade training experience built from the ground up by those who’ve raced, coached, and competed at the highest levels. The all-new 2‑Day Performance School is a completely reimagined program designed for aspiring drivers ready to take the next step. With two immersive, high-intensity days on track, every element has been reengineered—from the curriculum and coaching structure to the daily flow and hands-on exercises. This isn’t just a driving school, it’s the first chapter of your motorsports journey.

You’ll train in the Radical SR1, a purpose-built race car with paddle shifters and real downforce that delivers raw speed, precision handling, and incredible grip. Whether you’re brand new to performance driving or a seasoned HPDE regular, this program is engineered to accelerate your development and boost your confidence faster than you thought possible. From fundamentals to racecraft, every lap moves you closer to becoming a true competitor.

Are there any requirements for me to attend?

You must be at least 16 years of age, in good physical condition, hold a valid non-restricted driver’s license, have at least six months driving experience, meet our minimum or maximum size requirements, a d understand how to operate a manual transmission. You will also be required to sign all Primal Racing waivers and releases. Minors must have a parental waiver to attend the School.

Do I need to be able to drive with a manual gear shift?

Yes. You need to have some experience and understanding of how to operate a clutch pedal and paddle shifters. Once the Radical SR1 is rolling you no longer need it to use the clutch pedal to switch gears because the Radical SR1 has a sequential gearbox allowing for simple upshifts and downshifts on track.

What happens if I damage a car?

While accidents are very rare, they can happen. If you are involved in an accident, you will be responsible for all costs to have the damage repaired.

To limit your risk, we’ve adopted an insurance program to alleviate any potential financial burden that is available as part of the booking process.

Please wear comfortable clothes, closed shoes and bear in mind that you will be wearing a race suit over the top of these clothes for part of the course. Most of our students wear shorts, t-shirts, tennis shoes, and sunglasses. You may want to bring jeans, sweatpants, a jacket and a sweatshirt during the winter months. If you wish purchase driving shoes and other accessories; they can be purchased on the day from our partner Discovery Parts which is located just by the school.

We provide helmets and race suits when required. If you have your own helmet that has a Snell rating of SA2015 or newer you can use it. You also need to have the proper HANS post anchors for the HANS neck device.
