The Guide to Road Racing, Part 4: Getting Started – Race School
After choosing a path toward a racing license, acquiring the necessary safety gear, and prepping for race school, we’ve finally arrived at day one of Cal Club Super School at Buttonwillow Raceway. Super School is an intensive two-day training program which, upon completion, would qualify us to race in the SM class the day after we completed the program.
