Frequently Asked Questions

How much does FATT cost?
FATT costs $250 up to 2 weeks before the event (late registration is $10 more) and includes four track sessions with a personal instructor as well as skid pad time in our training cars.

What if it rains?
FATT is a rain or shine event.  High speed in the rain is actually one of the best ways to teach students how to be smooth since the vehicle language is accentuated.

Can I drive my convertible on track?
Only if it has a roll bar installed or you have an owner’s manual stating that your car has passive rollover protection.

Is my vehicle covered if it is damaged?
Track day insurance is available through HPDEIns.locktonaffinity.com.

Is there a place to get gas at FATT?
We have credit card pumps available 24/7 and free air and water available for your car.

Is there food available at FATT?
Yes, we have a concession stand with burgers, dogs, chili, and sandwiches available as well as soda, chips, candy and ice-cream.

What should I do to my car before coming to FATT?
A thorough maintainance inspection should be done on your car before any track time. Track days are tough on brakes and they account for the most lost track time. If you haven’t had your brake fluid flushed in the past year, have it changed.

Is FATT dangerous?
FATT is a high speed activity.  With high speed there is obviously a certain amount of risk.  However, FATT instructors are the absolute best at what they do.  They will endeavor to teach you how to drive your car fast, but safely, in a controlled environment. That being said, you will not be asked to continue doing anything you are not comfortable with.

What should I do with the stuff from my car while I’m out on track?
Don’t bring more than you need.  Whatever stuff you do take out, you can leave in your paddock space.  A plastic box or tarp is a good idea in case of rain.

Is FATT the best thing I will ever do in my life?
Quite possibly.
