Learn to drive your car fast,
in a controlled environment!
Start Here --> HPDE 1 - You’ll receive guidance from experienced instructors in both a classroom and via one-on-one instruction in your car. For safety, passing areas are very restricted in HPDE 1. If this is your first day with NASA Utah, this is where you'll want to start.
HPDE 2 - Your instructor has determined you can drive on your own with less supervision. You apply what you learned in the Group 1 sessions for more practice. Passing areas are still limited.
HPDE 3 - You have progressed to the world of high performance driving. The passing rules in HPDE 3 are not as strict. You must learn to share the track at high speeds with others.
HPDE 4 - No passing restrictions, except those of good judgment and rules of the road etiquette, apply. You and your peers are now experiencing the joys of doing it right in a relatively safe and controlled environment!
