You learn driving concepts in the classroom, but you gain driving skills on the track
High Performance Sport Lapping
The road to driving expertise is a journey of many laps. ProFormance offers several High Performance Sport Lapping programs to give drivers the valuable track time they need to continue their skill development, with and without a coach.
Usually held Wednesday through Sunday, our lapping programs are available to drivers who have completed the ProFormance One-Day High Performance Driving Clinic, as well as drivers known to our instructors. The sessions are limited to 14 cars to provide drivers with the best possible experience.
Requirements for all lapping programs
Students returning to the track after the One-Day High Performance Driving Clinic must participate in a 45-minute coaching session. Successful completion of your coaching session qualifies you for a ProFormance Sport Driving License, recognizing you as a qualified participant in solo lapping. This solo sign-off is required to drive any of our visiting tracks.
Private coaching
Private instructors are available for an additional $150.00 per 45-minute session. A full-time coach can also be arranged.
Frequently asked questions
Rain is a great learning environment and the school operates rain or shine. Clients are always amazed at how much they learn in the wet and how much fun they have.
At ProFormance safety is our top priority. ProFormance instructors are committed to your fun, learning, and SAFE experience while with us. Failure is not an option. In our 30 year history conducting curriculum for thousands of drivers, we have never had two cars contact each other.
Our young students must be 15.5 years of age with a valid state learner’s permit. Ideally, 3 – 6 months of driving experience will benefit their learning experience. ProFormance does not conduct a curriculum in basic motor vehicle operation – our focus is developing skill sets in Street Survival and Proactive Driving techniques.
ProFormance provides helmets free of charge for the first year of driving with us. They are the latest Snell-approved helmets, open-faced and wired for radio transmission between you and your instructor. When you decide this sport is something you want to do on a regular basis, we’ll steer you to knowledgeable companies who can assist you in obtaining safety equipment for you and your car.
During your day with us, we will discuss your options for acquiring your ProFormance Sport Driving License, Driver’s Log Book, and joining our recreational High Performance “Sport Driving” group. Drivers are required to do the following:
Within 6 months of your One-day High Performance course, schedule an AM or PM High Performance lapping session with coaching. You will be sent a video of the driver’s meeting and a video of turn studies. Please view these prior to your return to the track. You will be assigned a driver coach who will be with you for your first 45 minutes on track. Following that session, the driver coach will put you on observation for the balance of the day and will be available to you for consultation. Upon successful participation in the day’s drive, you will be eligible for solo status and your Sport Driving License. More than 5,000 licensed drivers participate in ProFormance programs.
