About this event

Primal Motorsports: 2‑Day Performance School

Developed by Drivers, for Drivers.

This isn’t a lapping day - it’s a professional-grade training experience built from the ground up by those who’ve raced, coached, and competed at the highest levels. The all-new 2‑Day Performance School is a completely reimagined program designed for aspiring drivers ready to take the next step. With two immersive, high-intensity days on track, every element has been reengineered - from the curriculum and coaching structure to the daily flow and hands-on exercises. This isn’t just a driving school, it’s the first chapter of your motorsports journey.

You’ll train in the Radical SR1, a purpose-built race car with paddle shifters and real downforce that delivers raw speed, precision handling, and incredible grip. Whether you’re brand new to performance driving or a seasoned HPDE regular, this program is engineered to accelerate your development and boost your confidence faster than you thought possible. From fundamentals to racecraft, every lap moves you closer to becoming a true competitor.

 

Why Choose the All-New Performance School?

✅ A Racing School Reimagined

Forget recycled lesson plans or watered-down lapping days. This course was built from scratch by professional drivers and educators to reflect the latest in modern racecraft. Every lap, every debrief, every challenge is intentional, and you’ll feel the difference immediately.

✅ Two Full Days. One Clear Goal: Progress.

You’ll be immersed in high-performance learning from start to finish. Classroom. Track time. Video review. Repeat. The pace is fast, the feedback is immediate, and the growth is real.

✅ Train in a Real Race Car - Right From the Start

The Radical SR1 delivers an unmatched learning platform. Light, fast, and forgiving, yet packed with aero and grip. It gives you the feel of a proper race car while building confidence lap by lap. Expert instructors and telemetry-driven coaching help you extract the most from every session.

✅ SCCA Novice License Eligibility

By completing this course, you’ll be eligible to apply for your SCCA Novice Competition License, unlocking access to wheel-to-wheel racing in SCCA’s amateur ranks.
