This half day experience is designed to give you a taste of what it's like to be a race car driver while enjoying the thrill of driving a Radical SR1 race car. You get to suit up like a pro with full-face helmet and racing suit, and learn the fundamentals of driving a race car. You start the day in the classroom learning the fundamentals of driving. You're then off to the skid pad to experience oversteer and understeer; followed by racing dynamics on our autocross course. After a familiarization, you drive the main track in an SR1.
You'll be strapped into a real 182 bhp Radical SR1 racecar, capable of accelerating from 0-60mph in 3.5 seconds and reaching 140mph in the draft. These high precision cars can pull up to 2g's in the corners and stop on a dime. The reclining seat position, open cockpit provides you with the unique experience and a birds-eye-view of exactly what the pros see when they are battling it out, head-to-head on TV.

We offer gift certificates for all courses. We issue a gift certificate that entitles the holder to take advantage of the certificate for a period of one year from the date of issuance.
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, and meet our minimum or maximum size requirements. 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.
Can friends or family come and watch?
Absolutely! Friends and family are welcome to watch at various locations throughout the venue, take pictures or video, and enjoy the facilities. They can even potentially participate in public karting if available. All guests are required to sign a waiver and releases on entry to Atlanta Motorsports Park.
