Timeframes for advancement are an observed recommendation. Each driver develops at a different rate. Drivers will be evaluated with a check-ride for promotion to the next run group. Many drivers run in different run groups at different tracks based on their experience at that track, for example, you may be a C-level driver at WGI but a B-level driver at VIR because of your experience at that track.
Group A Novice (includes 1 on 1 Coach) This group is for novice drivers with little or no experience. It will include a dedicated coach for the entire day, multiple classroom sessions, and about two hours on track in their car with a coach. Passing in this group is limited to designated passing zones with a mandatory point-by per car. We observe that drivers advance to A-Solo at different rates. Anyone with minimal or no track experience and who has not been signed off to run in a solo run group should register for A Novice.
Group A Solo (includes a Coach for 1 session) If you have either completed the HOD A-Novice program and been approved to run in A-Solo or have been signed off for solo elsewhere (Please Email Ken prior if you are registering based on another HPDE group solo sign off). In this group, drivers work with a coach for at least one on-track session. Classroom attendance is highly recommended, but not required. Passing in this group is limited to designated passing zones with a mandatory point-by per car. Check-ride is required to move to Group B.
Group B Intermediate (Solo) Drivers in this group are at the intermediate level. We provide group coaching by our Group Leader. Passing in this group is slightly less limited with a mandatory point-by per car. A check-ride is required to move to Group C.
Group C Advanced (Solo) This is the advanced group with Point-By Passing. Passing in this group can occur anywhere, in straights and in corners when it can be completed safely. A point-by is required per pass and per car.
Group D- (Unrestricted Passing) This is an invitation-only, open passing group. Passing in this group can occur anywhere it makes sense, no contesting corners, and point-bys are not required (although many drivers still use point-bys). Please register for group C and email KenE@hookedondriving.com with your experience and driving resume for approval if you have not already been approved for Group D. Upon approval you will be moved into Group D. IF there is not enough interest for a full group D run group, all group D registrations will run in Group C under Group C rules.
