About this event
The Learning Curve is a bit different than the average autocross event. The goal with this 2-Day Instructional Course is to get folks who are new to racing to be more comfortable with the process and nuances so they can be more focused on racing and having fun while at the race. An autocross can be a stressful day if you aren't prepared, and by the end of this weekend you will be ready for pretty much anything that could come your way on race day.
