Grand Prix Course

The Grand Prix Course is the ultimate experience at Driveway Austin.  This is the full course with all of the dynamics rolled into a full experience lap.  As an extension to the Short and Elevation Course, it adds the element of speed with a  2500’ straight away that emulates the winding straights of the Nurburgring in Germany and the “dogleg” experience from Imola in Italy.  At the end of both straights, a prepared car can reach speeds in excess of 130mph.  This circuit is the training ground for mass momentum delay, vehicle degradation at high speeds and most importantly, “Driver Perception”.

Level 3 licensing required plus certified vehicle.
