Join us for a weekend at the legendary Watkins Glen. At this high-performance driver’s education event, the only speed limit is your own talent. Novice and intermediate drivers will have a volunteer in-car instructor to help you develop your car-handling skills – making you a better, safer driver on- and off-track.
About this track
Watkins Glen is a favorite of both new drivers and those who have been coming to the track for decades. It has 2 screamingly fast straights, several elevation changes, and 11 challenging corners including the delightful uphill “esses”. Approximately 4 hours from our region HQ (Philadelphia), Watkins Glen is in the beautiful Finger Lakes. If your family enjoys hiking, waterfalls, or ice cream they will probably want to join you for this trip.
