Since the race school was a couple weekends ago, is it too late to race this season for me?

Never, Check out our Super Street Program. This can get you racing Round 1 for 100$.

I was interested in the Super Street program. The site says:

• 1:30pm – pair up with instructors, start the on-track drills and instruction sessions
• The rest of the day will alternate with on-track and off track instruction sessions finalizing with the SuperStreet sprint race

How long is the rest of the day? How much on track time would I get? I've never ridden this track and debating if I should wait to do a TD at HP before doing SS race or if the on track time would be enough. What are your thoughts? I do have 6 years of track riding experience but like to stay humble. Is it an easy track to pick up?

My first track time ever was at a super street, if you're looking for more track time I'd go for a track day, super street is meant to focus on "race" taste and pace. On a track day you won't get expert racer mentoring (unless you hire someone, could run $200+ depending on who and plus your track day fees) and at Super street you will be paired with someone, they'll show you lines, braking points, etc. Your call really as far as what you want to do. Most race days go by fairly quickly when there's no incidents, super street would be the last event of the day on Saturday but you have to be there earlier for classroom session and roll your bike through tech.

I'm looking for any track time. May 9th would be my first opportunity to hit the track and just looking to get out there for some fun sooner than later. $100 would be worth a little track time, check out the organization, meet the local racing community and finish the day with a race. Hope to be moved in by then and at the track.

Welcome dude, it's a very fun crowd and race days are awesome. The MRA is a gigantic family and everyone is really helpful. The season is barely started so you'll have plenty of chances for a track day/super street. Also make sure to read the guidelines as far as gear and the things for your motorcycle to make it track day/super street legal.

And HPR is a super fun track!

^Agreed, I had a lot of fun doing the school there earlier this month. Looking forward to round 1 and the rest of the season.

I may take the SF out there but not sure yet

Don't do it!

Do the Super Street, you will not regret it. You'll meet a lot of people that it will be nice to know, you'll get a great intro to the track. Although it will take a bit more seat time to really learn it since it is technical in some places. But for the price you will really like it. And you get a little taste of a race day.

Bueller - Are you racing this season?
