You will have loads of seat time navigating the Skid Pads, Acceleration and Braking expresses with a certified NNJR Instructor. If you don’t have a helmet, NNJR will supply one.
The car control exercises are purely designed for the sake of learning. There are no timers at this event, and there are no winners or “results” of any kind. The speed of the participants’ automobiles is only important as it relates to being able to properly get something out of the exercise. For example, to properly learn the braking exercises, the car must be traveling at sufficient speed to allow for ABS to be triggered.
The exercises are designed to be followed closely by the instructors so that we maintain continuity in the way these skills are taught to the participants.
We have a limit on 64 drivers, it will sell out fast
All-day event – arrive by 8:00 an and complete roughly 4:00 pm
