Drivers' Education

Seat Time Performance Driving Days are a chance to test your racecar, push your street car to the limits, or learn the limits of your car. For drivers that have no track time, or who have very limited track time, Seat Time requires them to go through two driving school phases. These classroom and instruction days will server as a stepping stone to running in the Solo Group and best of all are free.

Drivers' Education Phase 1 and 2 students will attend classroom time, and have an instructor riding with them to offer advice and to critique your driving style.

After each phase the student will be evaluated on a set of criteria,
and depending on his or her performance will be recommended for the move up to the next group.
