The session covers the rules of the event, safety concerns, passing rules and mental preparation for track driving. Novices are not allowed to carry passengers except for an instructor in practice sessions. Under no circumstances are passengers allowed in Hill Climb or Time Attack events, during competition runs.

Senior Driver
