NEW TO THE TRACK? YOU BELONG HERE!
SCCA Track Days are for drivers who want to enjoy their cars in a safe, controlled environment. This is not racing—there is no competition to win. For most drivers, all you need is a safe street car, a valid driver’s license, and an approved helmet.
Novice drivers receive dedicated coaching covering track etiquette, awareness, track entry and exit, passing zones, and essential driving techniques. You’ll have support throughout the day as you build confidence and skill.
