HPDE

If you are interested in learning the basics of High Performance Driving, or simply want to drive your car on a racetrack in a controlled and professionally staffed environment, then NASA’s High Performance Driving Event is for you. NASA HPDE gives you a chance to test your skills and learn from NASA's pool of experienced instructors at a venue designed for safe, spirited driving far away from the risks present on the street. Our HPDE program has become the standard for the 'open track' industry and features multiple skill levels to ensure that you are able to enjoy a safe and fun day at the track.

HPDE 1: If you've never been on track before or would like to be guaranteed an instructor, sign up for HPDE 1. We do not rent transponders for HPDE 1. Selecting the HPDE 1 option automatically assigns you an instructor. Please do not select the Instructor option. No passengers will be permitted in this group other than your instructor

HPDE 2: Drivers that have been signed off to drive on their own, but want more time at HPDE 1 speeds and skill level. So Group 2 is Group 1, but with no instructor assignment. We do not rent transponders for HPDE 2. No passengers will be permitted in this group.

HPDE 3: Saturday will work up to additional passing by the end of the day. Sunday will be a continuation, starting with limited passing and then picking up pace and passing areas in subsequent sessions. This should better prepare drivers for Group 4. Sunday only entrants should be aware of this. Passengers may be permitted in this group if you have been approved by the HPDE leader. All passengers must be 18 years of age or older.

HPDE 4: Advanced drivers with open passing skills. All HPDE 4 drivers who are new to NASA must be pre-approved by the Chief Instructor before being allowed to drive in HPDE 4. Passengers may be permitted in this group if you have been approved by the HPDE leader. All passengers must be 18 years of age or older.

Time Trial (TT)

In NASA Time Trial competition, anything goes, from prototype racecars and converted production cars to the current crop of electric cars. Weight-to-horsepower ratios make for fair classes and lots of creative freedom to build the car you want. NASA Time Trial provides a venue for spirited on-track competition with a high degree of safety and convenience.

Racing

The Regional sprint race series is offered as a fun, friendly environment with emphasis on good sportsmanship and clean competitive racing.

You must have a current medical on file with NASA as well as a 2025 Competition License to participate in any racing event. If you don’t have a valid license or approved medical, you will not be able to participate in any wheel to wheel racing. You can drive in any TT or HPDE session.

NASA Texas race weekends will include 3-4 races with one "Trophy" race on Sunday. This is to encourage a championship style weekend where the "big show" is the last race of the weekend. Trophy presentation follows the race - which also counts for double points.

You can find the NASA Club Codes and Regulations (CCR) as well as individual class rulesets HERE.

Supplemental Regional Rules are published HERE.
