Event Details

These High Performance Driving Events allow owners of sports cars / sports sedans the experience of safely driving their vehicle under conditions of higher speed with higher lateral g-forces and heavier braking loads than they encounter on the highway.  They learn how well their car can perform and how to control them under these more demanding conditions.  You don’t need a BMW to attend.

Highlights:

  • Two days in your own car on a racetrack with four half-hour on-track sessions scheduled per day
  • We will be driving on the South Circuit for the entire weekend
  • Register for just one day if your schedule won’t allow for the full weekend of fun
  • Each driver will slot into one of three skill level groups – novice, intermediate or experienced/solo
  • Each group has strictly enforced passing rules, since the HPDE is not a race, but a teaching/learning experience
  • Though the experienced/solo drivers have their own run group they get more track time since they can also run with the instructor group
  • Individual instructors will be assigned to novice drivers to help the new guys and gals acclimate to the event and learn the basics
  • Individual instructors will initially be assigned to intermediate drivers to help them bring up their skill levels
  • Autobahn now requires long pants to drive
