Grip 708 @ NCCAR (Overnight)

EVENT SUMMARY

This is not your “usual” track day”. We put together a full-service, all-inclusive
packaged, private “Track Experience” for fellow supercar enthusiasts, who share
similar “gripes”—too many cars; no food options available; no access to convenient
accommodations; lack of on-site service offered; etc.

“Grip 708 Track Day” will give you the adrenaline rush you crave, without losing
focus on every driver’s safety.

NOTE: This event was exclusively designed for intermediate- and advanced-level
drivers. *New drivers or drivers with less experience are welcome & They will
receive private instruction till they meet criteria to be SOLO CERTIFIED.
