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.

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 2024 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.

Competition Licensing School

NASA Texas hosts a competition licensing school at every event. If you are an HPDE4 qualified driver and you are interesting in taking our licensing school please email [email protected] for additional information about how to register.

The licensing program in Texas includes a 2 hour zoom call 1-2 weeks prior to the event. During this call we review the NASA CCR and issue a written exam that you will complete before the start of the event. All comp school participants must participate in the Friday test and tune day prior to the event. During this day we will evaluate performance. At the end of the day we will do a “practice start” exercise and an “eject test” to ensure you can get out of your vehicle in the time required in the CCR. Once all of those items have been completed with a passing score you will begin racing on your provisional license that weekend.
