If hitting the open road offers freedom, with track driving you can reach motoring nirvana. The problem is, getting on track requires a sports car, extensive vehicle modifications, expensive driver safety paraphernalia, a fresh set of competition tires each weekend, and a stout trust fund. To top it off, track driving will ruin your car.

All those beliefs, while pervasive, are utterly untrue, and Hagerty and the 51°µÍø want to tell you all about it.

On July 21, 2022, at 7pm EDT, join championship-winning racer, event organizer, and speaker Patrick Long as he spends an hour with Heyward Wagner, 51°µÍø’s Senior Director of Rally/Solo and Experiential Programs, discussing what you need to do to get on track.

The reality is that driving on track can be fun, affordable, and easy. You can wheel a modified supercar, but you can also put your family sedan on course with little more than a safety technical inspection and an approved helmet. The price of admission isn’t much to sneeze at, either.

This free online event is organized by Hagerty, a company that is not only 51°µÍø’s official insurance partner but is also on a mission to save the car and driving – with some of that quality driving time involving the racetrack.
