NJ Chapter Intro to the Track School

This event is designed to encourage students who are new to the track to try out our Driver School program. The event will be held at the Lightning Raceway at New Jersey Motorsports Park in Millville, NJ. The Lightning Raceway is a 10 turn, 1.9 mile road course featuring a banked, high-speed turn known as the Lightbulb. In addition, we will be using the skid pad in car control exercises! The Driver School Committee understands that there are hurdles for “first-time” students to overcome to try one of our events and so we have designed this school to reduce those hurdles as much as possible. First, the event is being held locally. Hotel rooms in the Millville area are relatively low priced and, for students who live in southern NJ, you could even get up early and drive down the morning of the event. Second, we are offering reduced registration fees to our First Timers so that you pay just $210 for Sunday-only or $160 for Monday-only. You will not find a better rate to get out on the track with personalized instruction anywhere. Third, this event will have a run group solely for First Time students. This arrangement will allow instruction on the track and in the classroom to be specific for First Time students and will provide a smaller run group for First Time students allowing better spacing on the track. Fourth, we will have skid pad and car control sessions for First Time students to give you a better feel for your car and augment what you learn on the track. Fifth, for our First Time students, we may also be able to loan you a helmet for the event. Sixth, we are offering First Time students the opportunity to sign up for 2 days. This second day allows you to reinforce everything you learn on the first day. And, Seventh, each First Time student will be assigned a Mentor who will contact you prior to the event and be a point of contact to answer any questions you might have before you arrive. Last year we had almost 40 student participants who had never been on the track and every one of them left with a huge smile on their face. This school is also open to students of any level of experience. We will have our traditional run groups in addition to our dedicated First-Timer group. This is the perfect opportunity to bring a friend, spouse, sibling or offspring to the track for the first time. Your companion will be in her/his run group while you are in yours. Come on out and join us! Please be aware of our Cancellation Policy.
