Experience:
Paced Laps- $25
If you are looking for a taste of what the track looks like from a driver's point of view paced laps is for you. Come experience the drivers meeting and go out for a 20 minute ride behind the Official NJMP Pace Car.
Progressive Paced Laps Beginner- $175
The Progressive paced laps experience is for those who want to experience the speed of New Jersey Motorsports Park, but don’t have previous on-track experience. Drivers will take part in a full day of performance driving education including classroom instruction and (4) 20-minute sessions on track, led by the official NJMP pace car. Each session will build on the previous, progressively increasing speed and frequently exceeding 100 mph by the end of the day.
Progressive Paced Laps Intermediate - $175
This is for drivers who have attended a progressive paced laps experience before. Put the skills learned as a progressive paced laps beginner to the test at slightly higher speeds. Drivers will take part in a full day of performance driving education including an increased level of classroom instruction and (4) 20-minute sessions on track behind the official NJMP pace car. Much like Progressive Paced Laps Beginner each session will build on the previous, progressively increasing speed and frequently exceeding 100 mph by the end of the day, but will start at a faster pace.
Progressive Paced Laps Experienced - $195
The fastest and most experience progressive paced laps group. This group should be made up of students who have completed the beginner and intermediate paced laps experiences above. Drivers will take part in a full day of performance driving education including now even more technical classroom instruction and (4) 20-minute sessions on track, led by the official NJMP pace car. Again, each session will build on the previous, progressively increasing speed and frequently exceeding 100 mph by the end of the day. In this group we will introduce “Leap Frog” passing as an introduction to safe, cooperative track day passing.
SCCA Open Wheel and SCCA Closed Wheel $295
