Three Day Racing School
The 3-day course is our premier program where you will gain a comprehensive insight into professional race car driving. We provide thorough classroom theory, advanced driving techniques, and meticulous instruction, which ultimately results in driving our Radical race cars at their limits. This program is SCCA accredited and after completion, you will have the opportunity to be approved for a novice license.
Day 1 - We focus on racing fundamentals including oversteer, understeer, and braking. In addition to applying these skills on the autocross course, ice hill, and skidpad, we also introduce you to the Radical SR1s and the race track. The goal is to allow you to apply your knowledge in a safe and fun environment.
Day 2 - We continue with more advanced techniques at the driver development center. We move into racecraft using the karts to introduce you to side by side driving, passing, and drafting.
Day 3 - We complete your final day of training with a more intensive focus on the track where the goal is to develop your skills to give you the confidence to drive competitively.
Upcoming Dates
The Radical SR1
Get behind the wheel of one of the most exciting entry level race cars on the planet – the all new Radical SR1 - capable of 0-60mph in a Ferrari FF-beating 3.6 seconds. Newly relaunched in 2017, the Generation 2 SR1 has been substantially revised with dramatic new styling, improved aerodynamics and updated electronics.
Powered by a 185bhp 1.3-litre Suzuki engine, mated to a six-speed sequential gearbox, this racing machine leaves its competitors on the starting grid. With exceptional cornering capability, the aerodynamics mean the SR1 gets pushed down into the asphalt at high speeds, and can pull 2.3g through fast bends - more than twice the handling capability of the Lamborghini Aventador.
0 TO 60 - 3.5 SECONDS
TOP SPEED - 138 MPH
POWER - 324 BHP/TON

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.

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 safety equipment and would be more comfortable wearing it, please feel free to bring it.
