Hello Women of ARPCA,

Are you interested in attending a brief event to learn about what’s involved in participating in a High Performance Driver Education (HPDE) event?  You’ll attend a 30-minute classroom led by Carol Neal, ARPCA HPDE Co-Chair, followed by driving your own car on the Pitt Race track with an ARPCA driving instructor (no helmets, and at highway speeds) for a few “parade” laps.

Please reply to women@arpca.com no later than May 19 if you intend to register.  If we get a minimum of five participants, we will host this event exclusively for the Women of ARPCA! Read more
