The purpose of the UCR Driver’s Education (DE) Program is to provide a safe, structured and controlled teaching and learning environment. The program is designed so that the participants can improve their driving abilities and acquire a better understanding of vehicle dynamics and high performance driving safety.
Participants will experience first-hand the capabilities of their own Porsche in a controlled, closed-circuit environment and will gain the skills that will enhance safer vehicle operations in all driving situations.

Introductory Driver Education (IDE)
Drivers who have never completed a qualified Skid School program are required to attend the mandatory Introductory Driver Education — which teaches you basic driving theory and gives you some practical experience developing car control through a series of demonstrations and exercises.
Driver Education Track Program
We conduct our driver education program (DE) on race tracks in a controlled and safe environment. Our program is designed to afford participants the opportunity to develop car control skills in an organized manner.
DE registration goes live on January 1, 2026 @12am. Both PCA and UCR have extended the expiration dates of the SA2015 helmets to June 30, 2026 to allow manufacturers time to get their products into their supply chain. Effective July 1, 2026, Snell SA2015 helmets will no longer be permitted.Â
