Suburban Corvettes of Minnesota will have two Driver School and Lapping Days at Brainerd International Raceway in 2013. These driver schools will provide you with the opportunity to develop your driving skills in the controlled environment of a closed circuit and then they can be used for normal street driving, autocrossing or racing. It’s also a chance for the experienced racer to get lots of track time.
Whether the sun shines or it rains, the Driver School and Lapping goes on. If the sun shines, it is a great time to practice the racing line, braking points or just different corner entry or exit points. If it rains, you will really learn handling techniques for adverse conditions.
There is classroom and braking exercises for the beginner, novice or semi-experienced driver. It is your chance to learn the basics and also how your car reacts to driver inputs. Ride with experienced drivers and see how they handle their car. The experienced drivers will ride with you and work with you to be more confident while you drive your car. You should take full advantage of the opportunity to use these experienced drivers and gain some of there knowledge.
Bring your own lunch, as the concession stand may not be open. We will not break for lunch, so you will need to eat when you can.You will need to bring:
- Helmet – minimum Snell 2005 (SCM DOES NOT have loaner helmets)
