There will be three driver classifications for our events. Some events may be held for specific classes, but our main events will be for all three driver classes. These classes are defined not just by the car, but by the driver, their abilities on the track and their understanding of vehicle dynamics and how to navigate the course. Your class/group will be determined by GIG Motorsports personnel prior to the event-start and may be adjusted during the event depending upon performance/instructor’s evaluation. These groups are created to make the experience fun and exciting for everyone involved and to maximize your time out on the tarmac.
