Each session will last for 10 minutes. Ten minutes in one of their karts is a lot! It’s a workout! Drivers must have closed toed shoes and pants or shorts (no skirts or dresses) to enter the track. All other equipment that you need will be provided. This includes the required helmet, neck brace, and jacket. Gloves are optional.

After the session, cars will drive the track in pre-arranged groups according to vehicle powerplant and driver experience. Cars will take their laps following in single file behind a pace car driven by an experienced driver, familiar with the concepts presented. Parade Laps may be taken in any street legal car, Alfa Romeo or non-Alfa Romeo, as well as in any race-prepared vehicle entered in the Time Trials or Autocross. Rental cars are OK to bring.
