| First things first – what is the Tire Rack Street Survival Program?
The primary emphasis of the Tire Rack Street Survival® is a “hands-on” driving experience in real-world situations! We use your own car to teach you about its handling limits and how you can control them. The students will become more observant of the traffic situation they find themselves in. They will learn to look far enough ahead to anticipate unwise actions of other drivers. As the students master the application of physics to drive their cars, they will make fewer unwise driving actions themselves. They will understand why they should always wear their own seatbelts, and why they should insist that their passengers wear seatbelts, too.
It’s about more than driving – it’s about LIVING!
The classes hosted by Chicago Region are instructed by Club members trained on the program curriculum online, meaning each school, no matter where in the country you attend, lives up to the same high standard. Street Survival schools are a fantastic way for SCCA Regions and members to give back to the community, offering a lifesaving driver education course with immeasurable value. Entry fee is only $95.

Update: We are also looking for in-car coaches, tech inspection, course, registration and others to help coordinate our class and make the day run smoothly.

Thank you for helping with this program to teach our young drivers car control. We cannot do it without you, and we’re excited to be holding another class in Joliet.
