RSRNurburg driving academy

Learn the Nürburgring properly — with the experts

RSR driving academy courses

The obsession of every driver in the world, from amateurs to world champions, is to go faster — finding those last few tenths. Many thousands of euros are regularly spent on upgraded brakes, tyres, suspension and electronics to achieve that. At RSR we believe the area which brings the greatest gain is often overlooked: the driver.

RSRNurburg’s Driving Academy programs are renowned to be among the best in the world, thanks to the extensive experience of our team of instructors, built on over 20 years of racing. To drive a car close to the limit you cannot rely on instinct and raw speed alone — knowledge and technical understanding are paramount.

Each program is completely customised and 100% focused on you and your current skill level. Designed in a dynamic, flexible way, you focus on the areas where you gain the most — speeding up your learning and maximising results. We cater to novices and pro racers alike, from the correct line to advanced balancing techniques.
