Kelly and his crew are the best. They hosted our real estate team for 2 hours, got us trained and in the simulators for some racing. This is a great spot for team events, client events, or just getting a group of friends and family together for a fun time. As a bonus you get to look at a ton of cool cars. Read Less

We took a couple of lessons on the simulator, to prepare for the upcoming tracking season, and we learned so much! Kelly Jones is a fantastic instructor, he listened to what I wanted to learn and delivered exactly that; I also admired his patience, it must have taken lots of it, not to give up on this hard headed woman. I appreciate it! 😊🏎️ Read Less

This last weekend I attended my first track event of 2025, at NCM with NASA HPDE 3 group.  This was my first event after transitioning from HPDE 2 to 3. I had a spec Miata racer who was also instructing ride shotgun with me on my first session.  He also happened to have ridden with me on my last session of last year.  Short story, he immediately expressed how much faster, smoother and confident I was than last year, even though it was only the first time back on track this year.  I told him about my sim training with Kelly this winter, and he was impressed with how much of a difference it made. Highly recommend Racecraft1. Read Less

As a driving enthusiast, I was looking for a cost effective way to become a better driver. I track my car and I have learned that without proper instruction you really won’t get any faster or better by just doing more laps. If you want to be a better driver, you need quality training. RaceCraft1 really helped me. It is a cost effective way to learn proper car handling on a very realistic simulator. The same way pilots have been doing it for decades. Various driving exorcises that can be paused, broken down as they happen is very helpful. There’s also hard data with graphs and charts which can be looked at so you can see how you are driving and what the car is actually doing. In a few short lessons, I have improved my driving skills dramatically. And it’s a blast. Kelly is an excellent instructor with a ton of driving experience so if your looking for a sure fire cost effective way to improve your driving skills in ways you didn’t think possible, check these guys out. You won’t be sorry. Read Less

The primary driving skills I wanted to work on with RaceCraft1 were car control, acceleration through turns with better entry and exit, brake onset, duration and release, and better track management. All were addressed in an organized and detailed outline while learning through the Sim experience my weaknesses and corrections. I chose RaceCraft1 because the instructors (Kelly for one) are typically at the 10/10ths events we join for track days. I started in the Novice group and knew he was a great instructor. I have been ready to learn more and advance my skills and decided RaceCraft1 was a great fit. With RaceCraft1 instructor lessons and using the Sim experience, I was able to apply the learnings, make mistakes and learn more about car control and handling becoming faster with more car control on the track. The outcome was knocking 10 seconds off my lap time and a greater confidence and skill level for upcoming track events. This will impact not only my track driving but also my daily driving. Knowing how to handle the car in a variety of situations and at speeds I typically drive, becoming not only a faster driving for track events, but also a safer driver on the streets. Read Less

Can’t beat this place. In only a few days here I went from a timid driver on track to a Solo novice in one track day.

This year I participated in my first off-road truck races, with little to no experience in off-road I was extremely nervous and needed help understanding the physics of car control over the jumps. Kelly was able to set up a simulator with tracks from the same series in which I would be driving. This allowed me to get a huge advantage with an overall confidence boost that I would not have had otherwise. My first lap in practice I was able to stay much more throttle committed than I ever thought possible simply because the simulator had created the muscle memory for the track. By my second lap the track was home and I was ripping. For my race I had worked myself up to 4th from starting 11th couldn't have done it without Kelly's training and the simulators! Read Less
