WSMC New Racers School
Held Saturdays of WSMC Race Weekends
 
For over 12 years, WSMC has provided motorcycle roadracers with the opportunity to compete for trophies, championship points, cash and prizes in a wide variety of classes designed to match riders with similar skills and bike designs.
As a new racer to Willow Springs, you are required to attend the Willow Springs New Racers School held each Saturday on race weekends. The school consists of both classroom training and track time and is conducted by WSMC’s experienced instructors. It is recognized throughout the racing community as one of the best in the United States.
You will then be placed in one of three Novice classes, depending upon the type of bike you ride: Lightweight (0-500cc), Middleweight (501-650cc) or Heavy-weight (651cc and above). After progressing through the novice program and completing at least 3 races and earning at least 10 upgrade points, you may be granted Probationary Expert status. You are then free to participate as in any Expert Class that matches your bike’s configuration. There are separate classes for production bikes, superbikes and vintage cycles. Only Pro riders may compete in the Formula 1 and Formula 2 races. Refer to an entry form for a complete listing of available classes.
All riders and bikes must pass Tech Inspection at each WSMC event. Rules and requirements for riders, bikes and equipment are covered in the WSMC Rule Book, available online. You are expected to know and comply with these rules.
Fees for the New Racers School, including track time are $110. A Competition License is also required. The annual license fee is $120. Race registration is $70 when received by the Wednesday prior to the event weekend, $80 thereafter. Sign-up forms are available here.
