Featured Track Event @ Homestead Speedway w/ Hooked on Driving
Homestead-Miami Int. Speedway (map)
Our 3 run group format will give you plenty of track time as we will go HOT at 9AM and run until 5PM. The Advanced/Coaches group and our new SUPER SOLO group will use NASCAR 3&4, while Beginners/Intermediates will use the infield road course.
SUPER SOLO will have unlimited passing and certain requirements for this group will apply. Call or go to [url=www.hookedondriving.com][/url] to view requirements.
Our usual catered lunch will be provided to all entrants free of charge.
Bring out your car to beautiful Homestead Miami Speedway for a full day of Performance Driving. Coaches will be on hand for beginners and those who would still like to have some instruction.
The Corvette school will have Corvettes available for rental and they will be provided with an instructor. You can rent them for the day . For further information contact Henry Gilbert at [masked]
Driver Registration Fee: $299.00
Guests/Spectators: FREE

Hey a big congrats to Rob... Is he going to make it to the track?

He said he is going to try for a couple hours, but the wife is still healing - so I think he gets a pass on participating. I think he is striving for Jan 8th.

Xavier, all you need is a smile and a love for cars... The entrance is at gate 18 around the back of the speedway. Now, if you want to bring some beautiful women, I'm sure no one will complain... See you at the track!

It was a fun event! I didn't enjoy group A because of the NASCAR turns, it was kind of creepy for me, but group B with the regular track layout was a blast! Great people and good drivers.
I enjoyed it a lot! :)

A big thanks to all who participated for making this an incident free event, schedule ran like clockwork all day not one single set back. Great job guys and girls!

Adam GrossoThe day was awesome. Lots of fun. I almost ate a viper but fortunately I was just able to avoid it.

John MicalizioAssistant OrganizerThis was my first full day in intermediate. I had a great time. Thanks to all the more experienced drivers for their patients (just in case I didn't yield to them fast enough or did something wrong). I was able to follow some new lines and managed a 1.48.8. Couldn't think of a better way to spend a Sunday then with Trackweekend!

Gabriel GuerraHad a great time at this event. My instructor Jim really helped me out at my first track weekend. Cant wait to head out again!
