Description:
Suit up and strap in behind the wheel of a Formula 2000 racecar! There are no speed limits, no on-coming traffic, just you and a racecar that handles better than anything you have ever driven.

Your day starts with classroom instruction on what it takes to control a racecar on the track when driving at speeds up to 130 mph! Next you'll have a live demonstration and practice in a Volvo sedan.

The last bit of preparation involves a short introduction to the racecars, review of the safety flags, and a short discussion about racing etiquette.

Then, after getting dressed in the same style of racing suit worn by the pros and fitted for a full-face helmet, it's off to the races!

Half Day: 2, 20 minute racing sessions or 30 Laps of racing
