About this event
Welcome to The FIRM Open Track Day — where seat time is the priority and drivers come to improve.
Designed for all experience levels, Open Track welcomes everyone from first-timers building confidence to experienced drivers refining technique, testing setups, chasing consistency, or dialing in lap times. Whether you’re learning the fundamentals, shaking down a new build, or simply looking for quality time behind the wheel, The FIRM offers a safe, structured, and low-traffic environment to focus on becoming a better driver.
Run groups are limited to just 9 cars per session, delivering more laps, more reps, less traffic, and more room to drive at your pace. Plus, drivers help shape the experience — each event includes a morning vote to choose from one of four different Short Course layouts.
Open Track Days are typically held on Fridays, Saturdays, and Sundays. Whether you’re refining your skills, testing changes, preparing for competition, or just looking to unplug from the stress of the week and spend quality time behind the wheel— open track is the perfect escape.
