Racing Adventures has graduated thousands of drivers through its Level 1 program as individuals or in corporate groups. However, after taking the one-day course, I was hungry for more, and as the Racing Adventure program was designed as a two-day program, all Level 1 graduates with a need for speed are invited to spend a Level 2 day of instruction at the facility. Level 2 students will get lots of open-session lapping time and will also learn passing, being passed, trail braking, car awareness, braking into corners in traffic, and a review of Level 1. If you are a Level 2 graduate, RA now has limited courses (see schedule) structured as a Level 3 course, with about 70-80 laps that are broken down into 9-12-lap sessions. The first session is a lead-follow to familiarize or re-familiarize everyone with the racing line.
Racing Adventures...the cars, the fellow drivers, the staff, and the instruction...I can't think of a better way for a car guy to spend a day.
