DE-luxe at PPIR!
Sponsored by Elite Deck & Fence
We’re going to start the 2013 driving
season in grand style! We are very
happy to announce that we are returning
to the track at Pikes Peak International
Raceway for our first Driver Education
event of the season.
Have you ever driven on a track which
has hosted races with winners such
as Scott Dixon, Dario Franchitti (owner
of a 73 911 Hot Rod; see January 2013
Panorama, pp 34-40), and Dan Wheldon?
PPIR is a great track for the beginner
and experienced driver alike. We will be
running about 2/3 of the famed oval, plus
a section of the challenging infield road
course, so you get the best of both worlds.
If you haven’t felt the thrill of going flat out
around a banked oval, it’s something you
need to experience!
The facilities here are the best in
the State, with a fully paved paddock,
spotless garages, a large indoor viewing
area, and a view of the entire circuit from
atop the scoring tower. Plus, it’s only an
hour south of the Denver Tech Center, just
south of Colorado Springs, right on I-25.
As part of this event, we’ll also be
hosting a DE-luxe party on Saturday night
at the track’s beautiful banquet room.
This dinner is open to everyone, so sign
up for the festivities/dinner even if you’re
not participating in the DE.
As in all DE events, you’ll have the
opportunity to learn from our dedicated
corps of high-performance driving
instructors, who will give you one-on-one
instruction on how to drive your car in a
safe, fun, and fast manner around this fun
1.3-mile track.
Be sure to sign up now at www.
motorsportreg.com (registration closes
April 6). This event sold out quickly last
year, and we expect more of the same
this year.
