Daily Schedule:

7:00AM - Arrive at the racetrack.

The gates open at 7:00AM. STAR provides coffee and breakfast snacks.

7:30AM - 8:30AM - Registration and Technical Inspection.

Registration is usually held in the Media Center. Listen to the PA for important announcements. Any outstanding balance are due at Registration.

8:30AM - 9:00AM - Classroom introductions.

9:00AM - 9:40AM - Warmup laps.

After separating the students into evenly distributed Street and Advanced groups, each group spends twenty minutes following the instructors on the racetrack. This allows for warming up both your body and your motorcycle, and to familiarize yourself with the both the racetrack and STAR procedures.

9:40AM - 1:00PM - Group riding and classroom sessions.

Both groups alternate in classroom/riding sessions.

1:00PM - 2:00PM - Lunch break.

Students should bring their lunch. STAR does not provide lunch.

2:00PM - 2:30PM – Instructor demonstration laps.

2:30PM - 4:30PM - Group riding and classroom sessions.

Both groups alternate in classroom/riding sessions.

What to bring:

STAR will have plenty of drinking water on hand for the day. Bring food, warm and cold-weather riding gear, including a rain suit as STAR rides rain or shine.

Bring a notebook and pen to take notes in the classroom. Plan on it!

What else?

Rain:

STAR rides rain or shine. Jason likes to say that he would have it rain at every school if it were possible. Although it seems counter-intuitive, we see fewer incidents on a wet track. The students slow down and start to work on the suggestions being offered in the classroom.

Camera/Video:

Munchphotos will be proving photo services at every STAR School in 2009. STAR does not allow video or still photography of the classroom or on-track activities. Please leave your cameras at home.

Tire Mounting:

STAR has a tire machine on the truck. Time permitting, STAR may be able to mount and balance a set of tires for you for a nominal fee. You must take your old tires with you.
