Drivers are split into 5 run groups based on skill level. Green will be required to run with instructors.  Each run group will get four 20 to 25 minute sessions per day!

[]– Green - WAITLISTED: This is the Novice group for anyone who has zero, or very limited, track experience (0-1 weekends).  An instructor will be provided to each student to help get all members of this group up to speed. If you require an instructor, you must sign up in this group!

[]– Yellow: This is the Intermediate group, which is for anyone with a few HPDE weekends of experience. This is a solo group. DO NOT sign up for yellow if you lack the required experience because green is waitlisted. Experience WILL be verified.

[]– Purple: This is the Upper Intermediate group, which is for anyone with a few HPDE weekends of experience. This is a solo group at a faster pace than yellow.

[]– Blue: This is the Advanced run group, which is for anyone with many HPDE weekends You should have a solid history with numerous events completed. This is a solo pass-anywhere-with-a-point group.

[ ] White: This is the Instructor run group. This is a point-to-pass group.
