At each N2 event, riders are grouped by skill level. These groups will make your time on the track more productive and more enjoyable.

Description
|
Intro
|
 |
This free trial group is for the street rider who’s unsure about signing up for a full day of riding. The Intro group attends a Novice classroom session and gets on the track for two 15-20 minute Novice riding sessions in the morning rotation. There is no bike preparation requirement; however, participants are required to pass technical inspection. |
Novice
|
 |
This group is very structured and geared toward those who have little or no experience riding on a track. A brief classroom session gets participants acquainted with the track, basic rules, procedures, and track etiquette. On the track, Control Riders serve as instructors and set the pace. Passing is allowed anywhere except in the corners. With each session, the group is guaranteed a steady increase in speed throughout the day. |
Intermediate
|
 |
This group is less supervised and structured than the Novice group. Control Riders observe riding ability and encourage faster or slower riders to move up or down a group. Passing is allowed everywhere except the inside of corners. The structure of this group may change to more closely resemble either the Advanced or Beginner group, depending on the group’s overall riding ability. |
Advanced
|
 |
This group has very little supervision. Control Riders are present to spot unsafe riding maneuvers. Passing is allowed anywhere on the track. This group is run much like an open racing practice. |
Control Riders
|
 |
Control Riders are the pace setters on the track. The number of CRs is determined by the size of the group riding at any given time. CRs also determine if and when riders move up or down a group, based on skill and comfort level. While CRs ensure safety on the track, that’s not all they do. They also provide valuable advice, coaching and feedback on your riding technique. |
