“Via”
or “street” is the run-group dedicated to novices, and
members interested in participating in a very controlled
environment. This run-group is a helmet free
introductory group. The format will be a paced; one
designated passing zone session, with instructors. The
intent is to bolster confidence, learn the track, and enjoy
the experience.
Via will
run two sessions in the morning, ands one in the afternoon, as an introduction to the
track. One classroom session will be scheduled at the start
of the day, and another before the second run. There
will be two passing Zones for this Event.
This group
is structured as an introduction to running on the track.
Simple concepts and description of the track will be
presented, in classroom format, before the cars are
released.
The exercise area will be a mandatory part of the afternoon
activities. We would like all VIA participants to
experience the handling of their cars in a controlled
environment with professional supervision. Check it
out, and you will be happy you did. You will benefit
from feeling the car on the slalom course and at maximum
braking.
The charge
for members attending Via will be $325. This group is
invited to participate
in the activities,
in the family touring,
and browse the Vendor Zone. This should round out the day,
leaving plenty of time to socialize and interact with
others attending other track programs.

SCUOLA
(Intermediate/ Advanced) |
|
“Scuola” or “School” is the run-group dedicated to
members interested in participating in our regular
performance driving school format. This is open to
intermediate to early advanced drivers. This is a
“helmet only” group with instructors, and three
designated passing zones.
Scuola
will run two 20 minute sessions in the morning and two
30 minute sessions in the afternoon. There will be
three passing zones for this Event.
Two
mandatory classroom sessions will be scheduled during
the first half of the day.
Exercises
are optional but recommended. Take advantage of the
excellent supervision, and well thought out exercises,
on the skid pad.
The
charge for members attending Scuola will be $380.
This group is invited to
participate in the activities,
in the family touring,
and browse the Vendor Zone.
We
welcome members who normally would be attending a full
driving school. Instructors will be required to ensure
participants are encouraged during the event, introduced
to the new run-group structure and the Piloti program,
and surveyed for feedback. Driver can be signed off in
this group. |

PILOTI (Advanced
Lapping) |
|
“Piloti” or “performance driver” is the run-group
dedicated to members interested in participating in
longer, instructor-free, driving sessions. This
group is selected on the basis of high degree of
skill and safety on the track. There are a set of
parameters which must be met, in order to qualify
attending this group. This group has achieved a
high skill level based on an instruction profile
developed for Scuola participants
I
encourage long-time track participants, who have
been signed off, to apply for this group. New
members must earn an invitation by instructor
recommendation, and evaluation on the track.
Instructor evaluation sheets and defined performance
levels will define the members of this group. Cars
in this group will be monitored on the track by
circulating instructor car(s), to ensure quality
driving. Periodic use of the optional instructor
time is recommended to maintain and sharpen the
driving skill set.
This
is a helmet, driving suit, and fire extinguisher,
group. Piloti will run two 25/30 minute sessions
in the morning and three 25/30 minute sessions in
the afternoon.
Piloti Group has a pass anywhere policy except
between corners 5a-5b, between corners 8-10,
and at the apex of the corners. Passing is only by
"point by" invitations only.
The
charge for members attending Piloti will be $400.
This will be track intensive, and we hope to attract
members who have been going elsewhere for their
track experiences. |
