About this event
Track Night in America offers a non-competitive, stress-free way for car and motorsport enthusiasts to experience real racing on an actual racecourse during weeknight sessions. This entertaining and affordable program welcomes nearly anyone who wants to drive their own vehicle on a professional track.
Getting started is simple. Participants need only be 18 years old with a valid driver’s license, plus access to an approved helmet and a street car in good working condition. No previous track experience or SCCA membership is required – just bring your enthusiasm for driving.
Drivers are grouped into Advanced, Intermediate, or Hawk Novice Experience categories to ensure everyone has fun regardless of skill level. Each participant enjoys three 20-minute track sessions and receives valuable feedback from experienced SCCA driver coaches on site.
Even if you’re not ready to drive, you can still be part of the action. Admission is free for spectators who want to watch the excitement unfold. Plus, all Track Night in America guests can enjoy leisurely circuit parade laps to get a feel for the course.
Palmer Motorsports Park, recognized as the “first true road course in Massachusetts,” serves as an ideal venue for this program. Located just seven miles off the turnpike on Whiskey Hill, this 2.3-mile track features an impressive 190 feet of elevation change. Originally designed for testing, driver training, and competition, it provides the perfect setting for both novice and experienced drivers to hone their skills.
