DismissProFormance Racing School’s AM Skills Clinic is the essential course in driving skills for drivers at all levels: experienced or new drivers, teens, new car owners wanting to find out what their new ride can do, or anyone wanting to learn more about their daily driving machine!
The AM Skills Clinic starts with a 60-minute classroom session, followed by four on-track exercises in advanced car control and street survival skills. The session and exercises combine to give you an in-depth knowledge of vehicle dynamics, skid control, brake application, steering, and advanced vision skills. Afterwards there is a review and closing discussion, and the driver is sent home having learned valuable lessons in proactive driving.
Note: Parents of teen drivers taking the course are encouraged to stay for the classroom and watch the skid pad exercises. They will better understand how the course increases young drivers’ alertness, control and confidence.
For the ultimate learning experience, you have the option of participating in the afternoon portion of the clinic, which affords you practical experience in applying all the skills developed in the morning. The afternoon session takes place on the 2.25 mile, 9-turn Pacific Raceways road course. Registration for the full-day program is required prior to day of class.

A Parent’s Review:
“Our Son had a first-rate experience on Monday at your teenage safety driving clinic. Some people might wonder why parents would spend the money to send their 17-year-old son and his 19-year-old Jeep Grand Wagoneer to this clinic. Our son is a responsible driver but, like most teenage drivers, he is short on driving experience and long on confidence, potentially a dangerous combination.
Before your clinic, we worried about whether he would be able to respond safely in fast-moving, heavy traffic or in an emergency driving situation. We wanted more peace of mind and saw your course as a way to help our son gain driving experience and skill in a controlled environment.
The clinic far exceeded our expectations. The classroom instruction was on-point and specific, and his one-on-one driving instructors were excellent! They encouraged him to safely push himself and his vehicle to perform with more speed and skill than we could have imagined when we arrived that morning.
Your entire staff made our family feel very welcome and allowed us to watch, listen and learn along with the students. The day was packed with hands-on driving and intensive eye-opening classroom instruction that combined to produce an immediate and steady increase in our son’s driving skills, allowing him to practice new skills and apply new knowledge in a supervised yet very challenging environment.
After watching our son work through the skill drills and then drive his Jeep, fully in control and in close proximity to other speeding vehicles, we have more peace of mind about his ability to handle himself and his vehicle in unexpectedly challenging driving situations. He also better understands the importance of being consistently attentive and purposeful in his day-to-day driving.
As parents, there is no question that this is one of the best gifts we can give our teenage son. The price for the clinic is small, considering that the skills they learn can save lives. Of course, in addition to the practical long-term benefits, the clinic is a breathtakingly exhilarating day for everyone who participates. Thank you again for a wonderful experience.”
