Built around your team
Every corporate program starts with a short scoping call covering group size, skill range, goals, and timeline, so the day is built for your drivers, not a generic curriculum.
Pricing depends on group size, duration, and vehicle needs, so this program is quoted per client rather than listed at a flat rate.

Tommy McCarthy Racing is a Bay Area motorsports operation built on hands-on coaching and dependable trackside support. It's the same standard whether it's one driver learning car control or a full corporate group training for job-related driving requirements.
Every program is run personally by Tommy and a small, experienced crew, based out of the team's shop in Fremont, CA. Clients on the Partner and Anchor tiers get preferred rates on transport and mechanic support as their season volume grows.
TMR also gives back off track, supporting Bay Area non-profits including the Children's Burn Foundation.
