I.R.P...Introduction Racing Program
Our Introductory Racing Program is designed to provide the basic skills necessary for sampling a real, Formula Race Car at a Race Track. The program will educate the individual in the safe operation of a racecar, including the rules, and regulations while on or at the track. This program also teaches the driving techniques and discipline required for driving fast. The BSFCS stresses safety and reserves the right to expel any driver who does not adhere to the instructions of the Corner Marshals, Race Officials, or drives in a reckless manner.

THE “I. R. P. “ AGENDA
You will start the day with an introduction seminar and instruction in driving techniques. This will be followed by issuance of driving suits and helmets. You will then be taken around the track in the trainer car. This is a three-seat car driven by an instructor with a participant on each side. The instructor will drive through the course to show you the correct line, including braking, turn-in, apex, and the exit of each turn. There will be two groups of participants. While one group is receiving on-track instruction in the trainer car, the other will be watching and receiving verbal instructions. When the session is over the groups will switch places. After each group has had their turn in the trainer car, there will be another blackboard session on driving techniques. The groups will then be assigned cars and scheduled for two on-track sessions. You will be fitted to your car, [seatbelts, pedals and steering position] and led onto the track by your instructor in the Pace Car. The instructor will take various positions so that he can observe your driving techniques. When the morning group sessions are over each group will eat lunch, provided by the BSFCS. When you have finished lunch, feel free to explore the pit and paddock areas and ask questions. After all the participants have had lunch, the afternoon group sessions will begin they will also receive extensive individual instruction and track time. You will also receive valuable safety insight from being placed on various Flag Stations. Above all, you will have this affordable opportunity to ”Try before you buy” as the total cost is only $495.00 and that includes Lunch.

Please understand that the I.R.P. is NOT a Competition Racing School. The BSFCS Competition School is an intense 3-day course which provides more track time and focuses on developing racing techniques. At this time the student would need a racecar, we can provide a Banshee racecar for either schools or competition races for a fee.
