VRRA STAGE ONE RACING SCHOOL – Is it for you?

•Do you ride on the street and feel unchallenged? Like you’re not riding at your or your bikes’ full potential?

•Do you ride for hundreds of miles – just to get those few extra ‘twisties’?

•Are you tired of paying ridiculous amounts of money to insurance companies?

•Do you constantly want to ride faster than your friends?

•Do you worry about speeding tickets or stunting charges?

•Are you competitive but love a friendly, relaxed atmosphere?

If you answered yes to any or all of these questions then our one day racing school could be the right place for you!

WHAT WILL YOU LEARN ? CLASSROOM SESSION

•How our friendly but competitive club works

•How to prep a bike for racing

•How racetracks function-and race weekends happen

•How to protect yourself with proper gear

WHAT WILL YOU DO?

TRACK SESSIONS

•Walk the track

Immediately after the classroom session you will be on the track surface with your instructor who will explain the racing line, corner entry and exit, braking and acceleration markers, and track entry and exit procedures.

•Lapping sessions

After the track walk you will suit up, get on the bike and get down to business! All the corners you ever dreamed of are right there at your front wheel!

Lapping sessions start around 11:00 am and are about 15 minutes with rests in between.

Student/teacher ratio is 3/1 so there is always good access to instruction and answers available for your questions.

•Workshops

In between lapping sessions there are short informational workshops with extra information that will help you become a better racer.

•Grid positions and mock race starts

These happen at the end of the school day. Before we throw you to the wolves you will line up and experience a 20 bike race start and if the day goes well, a few laps in a controlled simulated race ( only caveat – don’t pass your instructor – it makes him look bad!)

•Racing licences issued

Again – if the day goes well and you don’t run down your instructor or fail the short informational written test at the end of the day, you will be issued a racing license recognized by every major motorcycle racing organization in North America – or even further!

CONGRATULATIONS!!!!

And welcome to the best motorsport and best club racing you will ever find!

The Vintage Road Racing Association (VRRA), Canada’s classic and vintage roadracing association, was founded in 1980 by a group of enthusiasts who just wanted to get their treasured machines back on the track. Their avowed purpose: to ensure the preservation of racing motorcycles and to maintain the traditions of racing vintage, and now classic motorcycles in Canada.

The Association has grown and flourished in the ensuing years and now actively promotes four racing events to encourage and expand participation in the sport. The VRRA is the only motorcycle association in Canada devoted solely to classic and vintage road racing – encompassing 1940s to 1980s machines – and is the oldest such organization in North America.

The spirit and tradition of club racing are the heart of the association. Members share a strong sense of competition and camaraderie; often entire families are involved. Competitors range from 16 to 75 years of age, all with an active and youthful attitude.

Many members are “budget racers”, riding street-based machines that have been modified for racing. Others are ex-racers professionals and amateurs who like to stay with the bikes they raced so successfully in years past. An award winning newsletter and an excellent web site help new members adapt to this fun and exciting sport.

New racing members who have never raced or who have not raced for ten years are required to take a racing school prior to competing in a VRRA event. New members who have raced previously will require some proof or confirmation of their prior experience.

You don’t have to be a racer to belong to the VRRA. Non-racing members are vital to the long-term success of the club – as event volunteers, mechanics, bike builders and owners, scoring and timers, tech inspectors, grid workers, marshals and fans.
