Racing Dreams to Reality: The path to a SCCA License

Earn your Sports Car Club of America (SCCA) competition credentials through Pro Drive’s accredited Racing School…from Novice to FULL Competition License!

Pro Drive’s SCCA Accreditation Levels:

• 2-Day Racing School (Standard PLUS) – Credit for 1 SCCA school and 1 regional race weekend
  
• 3-Day Racing School (Advanced) – Credit for 1 SCCA school and 2 regional race weekends
  

Successful completion satisfies the SCCA Driver’s School requirement for a Novice Permit License (plus regional weekend credit when applicable), allowing you to compete in SCCA Regional Races. After three regional race weekends (or credit) on a Novice Permit, you can apply for your Full Competition Racing License to enter SCCA Majors and Super Tour events.
