About this event
Driver Education at Arroyo Seco Raceway
July 28th 2018
Driver's Ed let's you experience continuous lapping, limited passing in a highly structured fashion, and experience faster speeds than would be found in an autocross format, without having to worry about your lap times, as DE's are not timed. An opportunity to experience acceleration, braking and cornering limits in a safe and controlled environment. Tracks are designed or chosen to provide a fun and challenging test of your driving skills, and prepare you for higher speeds. Instructors are always available to assist new student drivers, or those wishing to improve their driving skills.
