Racetrack Experience

Are spectators welcome?
Yes, spectators are welcome based on availability. Please contact us to confirm availability for public walk‑ins.

Are reservations required?
Reservations are highly recommended as our experiences are in high demand. To make a reservation we need the date, session time, driver first and last names and what activities each driver would like to drive. We will also process payment in full with a credit card to finalize a booking. Walk‑ins are subject to availability and longer than expected wait times.

What can I expect when I get to the track?
After checking in, drivers attend a welcome briefing and technical instruction. Drivers then ride along in a Porsche SUV with the lead instructor for discovery laps. You’ll be introduced to your personal instructor (who will ride passenger) for coaching during your drive. After the experience you receive a certificate of achievement. On‑board video, Drifting Ride‑Alongs, additional laps, and additional cars are available onsite as supplements.

Can someone ride with me?
No. An instructor will be in the passenger seat so there is no room for others. If you want a ride along, we offer ride‑alongs (instructor driving) for ages 11+.

How are laps counted for the Exotics Racing experience?
The first lap begins when exiting the pits. When the car passes the straightaway in front of the pit lane the second lap begins, and the last lap is when returning to the pit lane. Example: a 5‑lap experience on the 1.3‑mile track equals 6.5 miles including driving back to pit lane.
