The Wheelhouse Racing School operates as an all-weather program. If extreme weather conditions prevent the Wheelhouse Racing School from safely executing the Event, every effort will be made to reschedule the Event. The Wheelhouse Racing School reserves the sole right in determining whether an Event will be cancelled due to dangerous weather conditions.

Our classes run mostly Monday – Friday during the warmer months of the year, generally from March to November.

New class dates will be released as classes fill up. You may request to be notified when tickets are available by adding your name to the email list under the specific class registration page in the schedule calendar.

There is the option to purchase a property damage waiver to limit financial responsibility for damage done to the vehicle used in the Wheelhouse Racing School programs. Without the limited liability, the student assumes full financial responsibility up to the vehicle's full replacement value for any and all damage they do to the vehicle.

This option can be purchased during registration on this website, prior to attending, or at check-in upon arrival at Wheelhouse Racing School.
