Putting it all together can be a challenge, and our Race Clinic not only helps you do that, but also prepares you for the ultimate goal: going racing. Starting with a track walk in the morning, our Race Clinic will give you an up-close look at all the twists, turns, and nuances of the 1-mile layout. With a group setting and up to 25 drivers on track at once, we’ll also cover elements like pack racing and help get you ready with a practice race start.

Kyle Hayner

 

Born into a racing family, speed has always been in Kyle Hayner’s blood. Through his career as a performance driver on tracks all over the world, he discovered his passion for instructing. Since 2008, his experience at schools such as Redline Time Attack and the BMW Performance Driving School inspired him to build a driver development program to give racers, new and experienced, a clear step-by-step process to becoming a driver capable of competing and beating the best. Having worked for some of the biggest names in the United States karting industry, Hayner created HRT Driver Development to teach passionate racers how to become champions.

 

Since HRT Driver Development’s inaugural campaign in 2018 they have had 26 different winners, 15 first-time winners, and a whole lot of hardware.
