Other Details

Rallycross Novice Workshop
Getting started in Rallycross is about more than just learning to race. In this class, we first introduce competitors the basics of the sport – rules, reading cones, working the course and preparation with Race Director, Kito Brielmaier. Then we move into car control and race technique with Dirtfish lead instructor, Nate Tennis. The first part of the day is spent in a classroom setting then we take what you have learned in class out onto the course. You will run through stations that are dissected course elements to give you the ability to practice with Dirtfish and MoDD instructor feedback. The day wraps up with a mini rallycross course where you can put all of the elements together. All in-car practice is in your own race vehicle.
Rallycross Advanced Workshop
Open to competitors who have raced in 5+ rallycross events, have taken our novice class or another Dirtfish course, this class is designed to teach you advanced car control techniques and how to put multiple elements/skills together on race. This class has a short in-class portion to discuss the techniques and elements that will be practiced. The in-car portion of the class will give drivers the chance to practice complex elements with Dirtfish and MoDD instructor feedback. The class size is limited so that we can provide a higher instructor to student ratio and make sure you get plenty of coaching with these advanced skills. The day wraps up with a mini rallycross course where you can put all of the elements together. All in-car practice is in your own race vehicle.
