Rider Experience Requirements
The 3:16 Trackdays program is for experienced riders with at least 10,000 miles of career riding experience. This is not a school and there is no instruction for street riding. Race Mentors are available to share experience, help you get comfortable and even share some racing techniques with you.
Love To Ride Group – For Beginner to Medium Intermediate level riders. However, anyone can join this group so long as they follow the “Golden Rules” This is a great group for beginners but also experienced riders who just want to ride.
Respect The Craft Group – For Intermediate to Advanced riders. This group is intended for experienced track day riders who want to improve in every way. This group also follows the “Golden Rules“
Riders who can not follow the “Golden Rules” will be warned one time and then sent home without a refund.
