Colin is an experience unto himself.  At the Camp, you have the opportunity to learn from a 2-Time World Champion both on and off the track…but most importantly, you’ll have a ton of fun doing it! Just like the staff and family, Colin spends the entire 4 days at the camp…not just showing up for a 10-minute speech and a photo op like at other celebrity schools. Colin spent years honing his skills on dirt tracks which he credits to making him the racer that he is today. You’ll spend four days with him and his team of highly skilled instructors learning the ins and outs of riding and racing. His approachability and easygoing demeanor is something that makes the experience that much more enjoyable and one-of-a-kind. After a full day of riding and training, you can end your day with Colin and his instructors sitting around the campfire exchanging racing stories with the students.
