When pro teams test, it’s not just to make the car faster; the days are also used to make the driver faster. What changes to set-up and chassis give the driver more confidence? What driving-style changes might produce better lap times? Test days are used to help drivers improve their analytical skills, to get the most out of the car.

The Test Day combines elements of the Computer Car course and the Lead/Follow program. You have your own personal Skip Barber coach for the program.

* Full day, starting with sessions in the Formula Skip Barber 2000 computer car.

* Coach and driver then get on track together: the driver follows the coach to learn the fastest line, the best braking-, turn-in and track-out points, and any particular “tricks” endemic to the track.

* Then a systematic series of set-up and chassis changes are made to the car, to teach the driver how each makes a difference in the Formula Skip Barber  2000’s handling.

Prerequisites: Primarily for the more-experienced Race Series driver, as well as racers coming from other championships. Please contact your School & Series Advisor to see if you’re qualified. Test Days are usually scheduled on the days leading up to a Race Weekend.
