High Performance Driving School
We have a High Performance Driving School scheduled for the weekend of June 4-6, 2010 at Gateway International Raceway. June 4th is reserved for a Club Racing School and an Instructor Tuning Day. More information will be forthcoming, but for now, mark your calendars and get prepared for the fun.
Street Survival School
We are planning two Tire Rack Street Survival Schools this year.
Saturday, May 22, 2010
Saturday, September 18, 2010
Registration will open approximately 2 months before each school.
-- Registration for the May 22, 2010 school will open on Monday, March 22, 2010 at 8:00 am.
-- Registration for the September 18, 2010 school will open on Monday, July 19, 2010 at 8:00 am.
Our history has been that an entire school, 40 students, will sell out on the first day of registration. If you want to register, our best advice is to do so at 8:00 am on the day that registration opens. Mark your calendars.
We will open a waiting list once the school sells out. If you are unable to register as one of the original 40 students, we advise you to register on the waiting list. We often have several cancellations before the school and can move waiting list students over to active registration.
Click on the Street Survival School logo above to go to the national Street Survival School website where you register. Our schools are held at Gateway International Raceway in Madison, Illinois. Make sure you select the "Madison, Illinois" school when you register. The school costs $75 per student.
