Step into something far bigger than a typical track day. This exclusive HPDE experience at Thunderhill Open puts you on track with 4× 30-minute sessions per day in a single, low-traffic run group—designed for experienced drivers (7+ track days) ready for open passing, no point-by driving. This is the only HPDE session offered during the entire event, making it a rare opportunity to drive while the festival comes alive around you. With only 30 drivers per day, you’ll get unmatched seat time and clean laps, all at Thunderhill Raceway Park. Between sessions, immerse yourself in nonstop action—watch real racing, drifting, live entertainment, and explore vendors throughout the paddock. This isn’t just track time—it’s a full weekend of speed, energy, and community. Spots are extremely limited—secure yours before it sells out.
