LevelUp Racing School was started with the idea that a racing school can be safe, fun, and give you the basic skill set that will allow you to drive just about any race car…all at an affordable price. All of our instructors are current or former professional racecar drivers with pedigrees from the top levels of motorsport and a minimum of ten years of teaching experience—some with more than 25 years!
And teaching racing schools isn’t all we do. Our instructors are active in many different types of motorsport and automobile events. We coach racers at track days and race weekends and help them “LevelUp” to their goals and maximize their potential. Many of our instructors also regularly work with major auto manufacturers by helping them introduce new models to the media and consumers at major racetracks throughout North America.
We’re a new school, but we’ve been doing this for a long, long time. In fact, we’ve been at it for so long that many of our instructors helped develop the curriculum for some of the largest and oldest racing schools in the world.
If you’re just starting out in racing and want to get your SCCA racing license, or you’re moving from karts to cars, a LevelUp can steepen your learning curve and help get you to the podium earlier in your career.
If track days are your thing, we’ve spoken to so many racers over the years who have spent exponentially more money on their cars than they’ve spent on their personal high-performance driving/racing education. The thought is that the latest shock or brake upgrade will bring lap times down by a half second or whatever…and maybe it will…but only in that particular car. However, if those very expensive components get damaged, or if the decision is made to buy a new car, that money will have to be spent all over again on new parts just to get back to the same level of performance.
By upgrading yourself rather than your car, not only will you be faster in your current car, but you’ll be faster in everything you drive and you’ll be less likely to be involved in situations that can damage your car in the first place. You’ll also have a better understanding of how the components work and which upgrades make the most sense, which could save you money in the long run.
Two days of classroom and on-track instruction from seasoned professionals who draw upon decades of driving and teaching experience. You’ll learn line theory, the lost art of downshifting an H-pattern synchronized gearbox, flagging and communications protocols, braking and passing techniques, race starts, and more from the best in the business. Upon graduation, you’ll be on your way to leveling up to your SCCA racing license. If you already have a license, we’ll help you level up to the top step of the podium.
We’ll periodically send out emails on new events, new venues and promotions.
