Program Details

Day One
In the morning, students will spend some time in the classroom reviewing the Skip Barber Formula car, vehicle dynamics, the proper racing line, race style downshifting, threshold braking, and cornering techniques. All of these subjects are important in helping the racer find their “limit” inside the race car and discovering the car’s true capability.   The students then head out to pit lane where Skip Barber instructors provide a hands on introduction to the Formula car in preparation for on-track training.  The racing downshifting exercise takes place before turning the first on track laps of the school in lead-follow sessions.

Day Two
On the second day, there is a substantial amount of time spent on stop box lapping sessions while getting instant feedback in the race car. Stop box lapping gets the racer as comfortable as possible in the car with extensive repetition, feedback and progression lap after lap.  Students will also do additional braking exercises and learn to read the various racing competition flags used worldwide. After lunch, students have a brake and tech talk before an intense exercise of proper braking techniques.

Day Three
The last day of the school incorporates racecraft. The student puts everything that they have learned to the test. Students will practice real racing starts and restarts, complete several passing and drafting exercises, and get plenty of open lapping sessions.
