On Track Experience
On Track Experience – Have you been on the big track? Do you feel comfortable being passed? Can you maintain consistent, predictable lines? Being ready to race is more about consistency and being predictable then speed. We focus on safety first; the speed will come with experience. Feel free to contact our New Rider Instructors via Coach@CRA-MN.com if you have more questions.
Welcome to your racing career!
The CRA has been turning riders into racers for 55 years and counting. Are you ready to be one of us?
