Harris Hill Rd Condensed TrackDay: novice/beginner

Harris Hill Road

About this event

Please join us for a day of fast fun at Harris Hill Road!  If you've wanted to do a track day but not commit the entire day to it, this event is for you!  This specific event will be a HALF DAY format which incorporates a full day of track time.  It is limited to NOVICE (Green, never been on track before) and BEGINNER (Blue, at least one event completed, instructed) drivers.  Instructors will be provided for all students at this event.  If you are an INTERMEDIATE (yellow solo) or ADVANCED (Red) driver, please register for the August 22 event instead!    Please note that because this is a half day event, lunch will not be provided for this event and the cost for the day is reduced in consideration.

This track features 1.8 miles of asphalt covering twists, turns, and elevation changes, and the event will be capped at 26 cars, so everyone will get plenty of uncrowded time to learn and play.  This track is a private, members-only facility, so it's a special privilege to be invited to hold an event here.

We reserve the right to remove anyone who, in our judgment, at the event is acting in a reckless or uncooperative way, and entry fees will not be refunded.

The registration fee is $155.

Cars are required to have passed a tech inspection 30 days or less before the event by a qualified ASE mechanic, and they MUST be quieter than 99 dB at 30 feet away.  (if your car is stock, you'll very likely have no issues at all adhering to this).

THE TRACK 

(Looking for some quick info? Click here to visit our FAQ page. You can read our membership agreement by clicking here.)

H2R is nestled in the hills of northeastern San Marcos, Texas. The course is very easily accessible, sitting approximately 2.5 miles east of IH-35, approximately 2 miles west of Texas Highway 21, and a little over 2.5 miles from the San Marcos airport.

We're right in your backyard. H2R is just 26 miles from downtown Austin and approximately 55 miles from downtown San Antonio.

H2R operations are housed in a 6,000 square foot clubhouse overlooking 150 acres of land with a very nice view of downtown San Marcos and Texas State University.

The track is a 1.8-mile asphalt road course, 36-feet wide. The pit lane consists of a 24-foot wide, 1/4-mile asphalt strip. The staging area includes the capacity for up to 60 cars.

Event requirements

This is a high performance driver's education event.  This is a non timed, non competitive event designed to help drivers learn basic driving skills, track etiquette, and handling characteristics of their car.  Instructors will be on hand for those who are first-timers or still learning track basics.

Cars are required to have passed a tech inspection 30 days or less before the event.  Convertibles MUST have factory roll protection or aftermarket rollbars installed in order to participate; please ask before registering if you have questions!

Please enter your previous driving experience!  If you don't have enough space, just email me, Sondra, at velocityadventures@gmail.com with your experience.

Thank you.
