Session Information:


  • HyperDrive (Racing101) - This is an introductory, (3) 20 minute track session for those interested in driving on a track.  We will use a classroom setup and a lead/follow system on track to help you become a safe and competent driver. This is intended for those new to the sport although intermediate drivers may also participate. You do not have to be a NASA member to participate in the HyperDrive. 
  • HPDE 1 - This is where you need to be if you are new driver.  HPDE includes (4) 20 minute sessions. All HPDE 1 students will be automatically assigned an instructor for the weekend.
  • HPDE 2 - For drivers that have been signed off to drive on their own, but just want more time with the novice group. Groups 1 and 2 run together.  The only difference is that Group 2 has no instructor assignment.
  • HPDE 3 – Groups 3 and 4 also run together, typically arranged by fastest vehicle.  Saturday will work up to additional passing by the end of the day. Sunday will be a continuation, starting with limited passing in the first session and then adding more passing zones and picking up the pace as the group leader feels appropriate.
  • HPDE 4 - Open passing, still monitored by group leader.
  • Time Trials (TT) - TT license is required to register. All TT participants must have a transponder and display proper NASA decals.
  • Race Groups - Number and composition of race groups determined based on entries.  All racing rules apply.
  • Competition School – Comp School utilized based on interest.  Designed for students who are ready to enter the realm of wheel to wheel racing.

Transponder Rental 
Please remember to return your transponder before you leave the track. A charge of $400 will be issued to your card on file if the transponder is destroyed, never returned, or lost. Weak signal is a common problem with poor placement and can result in sporadic timing results. Please ensure a clear signal to the track when choosing a mounting location.
