Event Information and Details

Buckle Up For the Upcoming Event

This year's minimum donation is $500 per driver/vehicle and $250 for each additional driver. Passengers, guests, and spectators can join us for $50. Additional drivers sharing a vehicle must have equal driving ability.

Registration opens at 7:00 am at Gate 6 at the Registration Building. After registration, we will have a mandatory event meeting for all participants at the Winner's Circle at 8:00 a.m. Refer to the track map below.

Your donation will be 100% deductible, and we will send you the accounting of all monies donated within 30 days of the event. All drivers, passengers, and guests will receive different colored wristbands for better control.

Guests under 18 will receive a specified wristband as a signal that they are not allowed on the track during experience sessions. Please comply with our system. Email Lamers Driving Experience for more details.

There Will Be 4 Different Driving Groups

Group 1-Experienced: Considerable number of track days at Road America with lap times near 3 minutes or less.

Group 2-Intermediate: Several track days at Road America with lap times over 3 minutes.

Group 3-Race Car: Drivers with race experience and lap times less than 2:55. No street cars allowed regardless of lap times.

Group 4-Novice: Those that want to drive their street car on the best race track on the planet, but not be among more experienced and aggressive drivers. This particular group may serve as an excellent opportunity for those who are new to Road America and wish to move towards one of our faster groups.

To participate in this group, a classroom session is mandatory and is scheduled immediately after the event meeting at 8:30 am. The classroom building is located to the west of the winner's circle.

The expenses for the track, lunch, safety workers, corner workers, wreckers, and ambulances will be completely covered by Our Sponsors.

Each participant will receive a $15 coupon which can be redeemed at the Gear Box. It will be open from 7:30 am to 4:00 pm. Breakfast and coffee will also be available for purchase.

Read Our Rules Below:

1. There will be no racing tolerated.

2. All participants (drivers and passengers) are required to wear a helmet made for this type of use. No exceptions. (Limited helmet rentals are available through Road America. See the registration page for details. 

3. No convertibles unless the car has been race-prepared, including roll bars and quality belts. No exceptions. 

4. Absolutely no metal-to-metal contact, and you must use proper passing techniques. 

5. Obey corner workers, safety staff, and flags. If not, you will be black-flagged and asked to stop. If this happens more than once, you may be asked to leave.

6. Pay attention to your mirrors. If you see someone coming that is obviously faster, hold your line, slow up slightly, and let them by you. Do not change your line before the pass.

7. Pass only on straight sections of the track...not on the corners.

8. No drivers or passengers under the age of 18. The only exception would be for a person who has appropriate race credentials from an accredited racing group, such as SCCA or similar. 

9. No handheld cameras or cell phones. No exceptions.

10. Any contact, and you caused it, you are done for the day.

11. If you get black-flagged for dangerous driving, you will be parked for the session. If it happens more than once, you will be asked to leave. 

View Additional Information: 

1. We recommend checking your front brake pads after every session to ensure they are functioning properly.

2. Please avoid using the emergency brake for parking, especially when your brakes are still hot. This could cause the rotors to warp.

3. If you are driving a passenger car, it's a good idea to bring an extra set of front brake pads and brake fluid.

4. Before each session, make sure you check your own physical condition. This activity can be quite demanding, so it's important to stay hydrated and not overexert yourself on the track.

5. Prior to hitting the track, it's crucial that you remove all loose items from your car. Loose items can become a serious hazard and potentially get stuck under the brake pedal.
