Last minute buying has become the rule as opposed to the exception in our current economic environment…
For some businesses this might not be an issue, but for a racing school, it can be a nightmare. Much preparation goes into the development and organization of our programs. Resources, both human and mechanical, have to be planned in advance. Track time is acquired as much as 9 months in advance.
Therefore, being able to estimate class sizes early on ensures the proper matching of resources and demand.
Why are we telling you this?
Because we’re about to give you a major incentive to plan and buy early!
Beginning May 24th we will be discounting all of our major programs, based on how far in advance you book. See schedule below.

“More Training is required to get a license to cut hair, than to drive a racecar…”
-Bertil Roos, 1980
In a cultural era where everything has been watered down, and shortcuts seem to abound, some things just should NOT be compromised.
At the Bertil Roos Racing School, it’s not just about taking money and issuing licenses. We train drivers to compete… effectively, safely, and successfully; and have been for 35 years.
It has always been our stance that quality will never be sacrificed no matter what the flavor of the month is. If you are serious about motor racing, come visit us… If you’re looking for a shortcut… well, there are plenty of “Johnny Come Lately’s.”

Bertil Roos Racing School Exhibits at New York International Auto Show
“A huge success!” That is how Dennis Macchio, President of the Bertil Roos Racing School, described its participation at the recently completed New York International Auto Show.
“We were overwhelmed by the amount of exposure we received for the school and its family of corporate partners”, Macchio said. “Having the only formula car on display gave us an opportunity to showcase our product, and those of our sponsors, to unanticipated levels.”
The ten day show, which began April 2nd, was attended by hundreds of thousands of auto enthusiasts.
The school, which kept a rough count on number of visitors to its booth, placed the number at just over 100,000.
Due to the uniqueness of the display, more than 40,000 pictures were taken. “We were extremely happy with both the number of visitors, and the level of their enthusiasm”, Macchio said.
“Open wheel racing interest is on a growth curve and it was great to spend some time talking with so many enthusiasts.”
“Questions about the sport, the school, and its many sponsors seemed to never end. We had as many as 5 people working during peak periods, and they almost never got a chance to rest.”
The school expects the show to fill out its extensive schedule of 2010 programs, held at Virginia International Raceway, New Jersey Motorsports Park, and Pocono International Raceway.
To those that attended:
The Bertil Roos Racing School would like to thank all of you that attended the New York Auto Show and took the time to stop by our booth to discuss the school and to pick up a Discount Coupon. Thanks to you, the Bertil Roos School had quite a successful showing and generated a great amount of interest and sales.

We would like to call your attention to eformulacarnews.com for an article about the history and methodology of the Bertil Roos Racing School and its teaching.
Allan Craighead writes in his article, Bertil Roos Racing School - A Hidden Gem,
“‘The main concept of the Bertil Roos Racing School since day one has been not only to teach drivers enough to gain a racing license, but to help them become a quality race car pilot,’ said current school owner Dennis Macchio. ‘We firmly believe that the format and techniques used at the Bertil Roos Racing School help reduce the gap that all drivers experience between the end of school driving and their first real race.’
The results, in fact, speak for themselves, with the Bertil Roos Racing School having a very high ratio of graduating students excelling in both the pro and amateur ranks. Some alumni of note include former IndyCar racers Michael and Jeff Andretti, NASCAR driver Jeff Burton, Star Mazda Championship pilot Conor Daly, F2000 Championship Series driver Jonathan Scarallo and the previous mentioned Lally, Cosmo and Prendeville.”
Welcome to the Bertil Roos Racing School,
home of one of the fastest growing, most professional
racing schools on the planet.

to hone your skills and move up the ladder? Our broad
variety of programs are designed to meet your specific
needs.

of excitement as the pros by driving a Formula
car in one of our Half-Day, One-Day, or Three-Day racing programs (no prior experience required!).

the thrill of driving purpose-built, open wheel,
formula 2000 racecars.
