Classroom instructions! Since this will most likely be your first time on a race track, we will require that you attend a pre-track classroom session. This will get you familiar with the track, the rules, caution flags and make your first time track experience and enjoyable one. Everyone MUST attend the classroom. There will also be an after-session classroom to answer any questions you may have. Naturally between your 2 track sessions you are welcome to roam the paddock area and talk to the many other motorcyclists just like yourself. We are a friendly bunch and will be glad to help you with any questions or concerns!

What do you get?

Arrive inside the track no later than 10:00am (first class is at 10:20). This will give you about 15 minutes to get ready for fun! Naturally we invite you arrive earlier, hang out with us and get comfortable with the area. We begin letting riders and spectators in at 7am with normal track day sessions starting at 8am. Everyone entering the track area is require to pay a $5 gate fee and sign the appropriate waivers. You are welcome to spend the whole day with us!

NOTE: Entry to the track area (crossing over the track area) is only permitted between sessions. You may have to wait at the gate until the current session is over. This may take 20 minutes so please allow ample time to get inside the track area for registration purposes.

2-*10-15 minute track sessions. You will be permitted to run the track once in the morning hours and once in the afternoon hours in a private session. If the TTT group is small, it may be combined with the Street/Novice group. This group is chaperoned, speed restricted with a no-passing rule. Even with these requirements, the experience is exhilarating and fun with speeds well above normal street riding. You will definitely feel the "RUSH"!

2-15 minute classroom sessions. A REQUIRED Classroom sessions before and after your first track session. The first *10:20 classroom will help you understand the requirements, the track and safety flags used around the track area and help make your first time track riding experience an enjoyable one.

There are several great advantage points where you can get really close to the action.
