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 mulitple Race Schools on the East Coast this year.  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 30 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 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 share 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.

Kart Control: Experiencing the limits of the karts by driving into a curve faster than the tires can handle.  Learn how to counter steer to correct the “oversteer condition” created by the excessive speed.  Once control is obtained you will use proper braking to stop the kart for individual feedback from an instructor.  And you don’t have to pay for the tires if you spin.

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.

Schedule:  Our typical Kart Racing School schedule looks like this.
