Our now famous "2-For-1" pricing will apply for this event!

ERME is the creator and home of the original “2-FOR-1" Ultimate Track Day Experience!

“If you build it, they will come” is a famous quote from the movie "Field of Dreams"

We have built the "Track Day" equivalent of the "Field of Dreams"

An affordable way to get you and your car on track. The HPDE community not only asked for it, but in this difficult economy, demanded it! We have listened and we have reacted. [font]

Register with a friend and one of your registrations is completely FREE!!

For details see below:

ERME 2-For-1 Offer - Terms & Conditions
1. Both drivers must register for the event through ERME’s website. This is important so that ERME has complete driver information on both drivers.

2. First driver registering will be charged the full amount ($299, or $349 for novice). Second driver may enter a dummy credit card number when registering (CC# 000000000000000). If an intermediate or advanced solo driver registers with a novice driver, then the 2-for-1 price will be the novice's price of $349.

3. BOTH drivers must note upon registering that they are participating in the 2-for-1 offer AND list the name of the friend registering with them.

*NOTE: The free event is a FULL registration. It is not for a 2nd driver for the same car, and you're not splitting track time with your friend. You will get full track time in your own car.

Now ERME brings you the most economical opportunity to see what you can do on a real track! ERME provides you a format to drive your car as fast as you desire in a safe and non-competitive setting.

Frequently Asked Questions:
