Endurance Karting Race
School
Does
any of the following apply to you?
A.
You want to improve your day-to-day driving skills.
B. You crave thrills and seek them at every
opportunity.
C. You enjoy racing and want to learn how to race like
your driving
heroes.
D. You like having fun.
If
you answered “yes” to any of the above, we invite you to join us at an
Endurance Karting Race School.
For
only $395 per student, you can learn the ropes of endurance kart
racing. We offer 12 Race Schools in six East Coast states in 2006.
Many of the karting tracks are located at international race tracks,
and are highly-revered in the racing world. You’ll make personal
history on tracks that have launched the careers of international
racers.
We
limit each race school to 20 students, which provides a low
student-instructor ratio. We designed our instruction method with the
student in mind in order to provide the highest-quality and most
enjoyable learning experience possible. Our instructors provide
individual instruction and useful feedback to students to ensure that
each student masters each skill set.
We
combine classroom and hands-on learning to give you the best practical
approach to learning race car driving. Since our emphasis is on track
time, each student receives at least 1-1/2 hours behind the wheel. You
learn new racing techniques in stages so you won’t feel overwhelmed
having to learn too much at once. You develop camaraderie with your
fellow students as you develop a working knowledge of karting in about
six hours. You will experience a wide array of thrills, including
planning strategy, racing wheel-to-wheel at 45 mph, and hopefully, being
part of a winning team.
Regardless of your motivation, when you participate in an Endurance
Karting Race School, you leave having experienced something that
impacted your life on so many levels. Join us at a Race School and see
how we “Take Fun Seriously!”
Program:
Each
Endurance Karting Race School covers a number of racing techniques.
Here is just a taste of what you can learn:
Driving Basics:
This is a classroom lesson that provides an overall orientation, an
introduction to karts and the meaning of the racing flags.
Lead-Follow with Instructors:
You will drive at a slow, constant speed while you get familiar with the
kart. You will learn the proper race line, turn-in point, apex and exit
of turns.
Braking:
You will practice rapid, controlled braking while turning.
Side-by-Side:
You will drive closely with an instructor or a fellow student at a
medium, constant speed.
Faster Speed:
The
instructor will emphasize correct racing line; turn in, braking and
acceleration points; and open passing. You will drive
at a faster speed for this exercise.
Fast
Lead-Follow:
You will drive at a slow-to-medium, constant speed as the instructor
demonstrates the correct racing line. Supervised passing will be
permitted on the straightaways.
Track
Walk: You will review the racing line from an out-of-kart track
perspective and discuss the fine points of reading track surface,
correct corner entry implications and incorrect corner entry
ramifications.
Pair
Up: These are longer, higher-speed sessions. Included are
driver changes and individual practice sessions. Instructors will
illustrate the “trouble corners” and provide feedback.
Mock-Races:
You partner with another student and team up to alternately experience
the Le Mans Start, driver changes and racing excitement while utilizing
what you learned in the racing lessons.
