Event requirements

Drivers at this level have received numerous days of in-car coaching/on-track instruction. The driver has been signed off by instructor to run as Intermediate. Passing requires a point-by signal, and passing zones are unrestricted.
Advanced: Experience level requirements, HPDE Level 4 or higher . Our top classification includes drivers with years of experience and thousands of laps at numerous different tracks. The driver's road course skills and traffic management are instinctive. The driver has superior situational awareness and is capable of multi-tasking at a very high level. Heel/Toe downshift technique is second nature. Drivers at this level are comfortable with side-by-side conditions, safely passing through corners, driving off-line, and promptly yielding to faster traffic.
