About Hooked on Driving
Hooked On Driving (HOD) is a community of individuals who
share a passion for driving their cars. Founded in 2004, HOD has
the goal of being the first true, trusted national brand of performance driving
programs, and is well on the way to accomplishing this goal. Hooked
On Driving currently operates in 6 key regions of the U.S. including:
Northern California/Reno, Northeast U.S., Florida, Great Lakes, Southern
States, and the Pacific Northwest. Drivers are welcome to travel from one
region to another and participate with their own cars, or contact the Region
owner to arrange an “arrive and drive” rental.
HOD is primarily focused on providing high performance driver training for
those with capable cars, in the controlled environment of a race course – with
NO competition or training for competition. All that is needed to
participate is a safe, well maintained and reliable car, and an auto racing
helmet with an SA 2005 designation or newer. There are some restrictions
on driving convertibles – click HERE for the HOD policy on
convertibles. Most regions have resources for cars to rent for
the program. With a focus on safety, coaching, learning and fun, HOD
drivers are able to experience their cars at a higher level on a track than
would be safe or prudent on the public highways. As a result, drivers
gain a new appreciation of their car – its capabilities, strengths and weaknesses;
as well as their own skills as a driver and the need to develop those
skills. Oh, and by the way, they have a TON OF FUN!
