ABOUT TMR
TrackMasters Racing - Founder
The founder of TrackMasters Racing (Doug Gale) has been organizing and hosting High Performance Instructional Driving Events and Charitable Collector Car Shows in Northern California since 1996. Like many of you, he has a passion for vehicles and loves to drive them fast! Doug left his role as the founder of another large track club to build a new club with values that he felt were more in-line with the majority of us ‘part time’ enthusiasts. Individuals who share a common set of values regarding their vehicles, personal safety, and overall track experience. Let's face it, people who value their vehicles don't want to worry about them on the track, or bring them home damaged!
Fun and Safety for you and your car is our top priority! Aside from the occasional mechanical breakdown, TMR has a near perfect event safety record. Those who have run at any of our events know that it's all about Safety, Track Time, and Camaraderie on the track and in the paddock!
TrackMasters Racing - Charter
TrackMasters Racing was formed to get back to the basic values that many of us share regarding High Performance Driving Events. Larger organizations tend to be too commercialized, less personal, and crowded. TMR's goal is to put on High Performance Driving Events that are unsurpassed in Quality, Safety, and Value while maintaining the personal touch expected from a smaller organization.
Instruction - One on one instruction is available but is limited to instructor availability. TMR will pair you up with an experienced instructor who will coach you on the skills necessary to navigate your vehicle around the track at speed. Whatever your comfort level, we'll tailor the instruction to satisfy your personal goals.
The process we use is to have you and your assigned instructor 'connect' before an event to discuss your skills and/or concerns. The instructor will then determine which aspects of car control you may need to focus on to satisfy your personal goals and objectives for the day. At this time there is no charge for this service.
Time Trials - TMR has no plans to conduct timed events at this time. Timed events are viewed as 'competition' by insurers and therefore increase the risks to members and the entities hosting the events. However, we are looking into the purchase of lap timing equipment for the 2004 season. These devices will be available to members who have an interest in monitoring and/or improving their lap times.
Racing - TMR events are considered High Performance Driver Education events and racing is NOT allowed OR acceptable. Competitive Racing increases the risks to members, members vehicles, and the entities hosting the events. Racing events also require different event and vehicle insurance coverages. Typically, your personal vehicle insurance coverage will not cover any damage incurred during such events.
