Introduction:

LRS Formula 1 Driving Experience

The LRS Formula USA team was founded around the following unique concept: “Open the doors to driving real F1 cars and share an incredible world of prestige and excitement with a select few clients who can truly appreciate the uniqueness of this driving experience.”

LRS Formula USA is the sister company of LRS Formula Europe. LRS Formula Europe trains hundreds of individuals annually from all over the world on some of the most famous European road racing circuits.

“The real thing!”

LRS Formula USA offers authentic Formula 1 race cars, once used in the Formula 1 World Championship: the 1997 Arrows (driven by World Champion Damon Hill), the 1998 Benneton (driven by Giancarlo Fischella), and the 2001 Prost (driven by both Jean Alesi and Heinz Harald Frentzen). The Arrows and Benneton are equipped with a Ford Cosworth 3.5L V8, while the Prost sports a Peugeot 3.5L V10. Both engines put out about 700HP in cars that weights less than 1000 lbs! Thats an insane amount of power! All cars are equipped with traction control, semi-automatic gearbox with steeringwheel paddle shifters, carbon brakes, and more features only found in these multi-million dollar racecars!

“Location! Location! Location!”

The training vehicles:

Every LRS Formula USA program starts with an informative classroom session that will look at the many facets involved in driving real race cars. The classroom session is followed by an opportunity to look at the track features during a passenger van drive around of the full circuit.

Now you're ready to start the actual driving portion of your program. We use the American built Nemesis Formula 2000 race cars provided by the Derek Daly Performance Driving Academy. These are the perfect training vehicles to get you comfortable on the race track and get you used to the feel of an open wheel single seat race car.

Safety: “A top priority”

Our technical staff meticulously checks and tunes each car before and after every class.

Each car is checked and Ok'd by an instructor who drives it around the track before class to ensure readiness of equipment.
Each car has been equipped with a traction control (ASR) system which reduces rear wheel spin for easier and safer handling on the race track.
Instructors, mechanics and safety crew will closely monitor students during track runs.
All safety equipment worn by all students, including triple layer nomex suits, nomex hood, gloves, helmets etc. are provided by LRS (we use brand names like OMP and Alpinestars which are certified by the FIA )
The maximum number of students for our training class is limited to 15.“The success of this fantastic driving experience is based on safety”!

Infrastructure, guests

The ground school is provided indoors within the track facility.
In addition to providing a fully catered continental breakfast and lunch to all registered drivers, additional food and beverages are provided throughout the day.
Each student enrolled in a Warm-up, or qualification program is allowed to bring 3 guests to share this incredible experience.
