Your Driving Coach
a little about me
John Mossey, Owner & Driving Coach
I've spent my entire life at the track. From dusty karting tracks in Homestead, Florida to the sweeping grandeur of Monaco, over the past 15 years, I've had the chance to mingle, observe, and race on outstanding tracks across the world of motorsports.
I know what makes a good track. I also know what makes a bad one; and I've learned that what really makes (or breaks) a day at the track, is how smoothly the experience itself goes. There are a lot of things that can go wrong—from blowing a motor to forgetting to pack a cooler; so I feel confident in saying that the best days at the track are the ones where everything was prepared perfectly, so you can focus on the cars and just enjoy driving.

A Day at the Track...
packages & pricing
“There are few experiences in my life that could top my track day with Mossey Motorsports! The entire experience was first-class from start to finish. John is a tremendous instructor who was very organized and prepared. The entire day whizzed by as we mixed up sessions on the track with educational video-review sessions off the track. I can’t say enough positive things about my track-day with Mossey Motorsports and would recommend them whole-heartedly!”

Driving Coaching
My passion is racing. I have been racing for over 15 years; we know what makes a great weekend at the track. My service takes care of everything for you so that you can have a great time and concentrate on becoming a better, faster driver.
My mission is to give you an unforgettable experience at a race track that will let you enjoy your time in the car and become a faster driver.
Typically, track day coaching can be troublesome. Usually, you get assigned an instructor that may not have all the knowledge or skills necessary. Often, the only qualification required of them is a number of completed track days. This means that you can be taught bad habits that can not only make you slower, but can even be dangerous.
My coaching is backed by 15 years of intensive racing experience. I have always been taught by the best in the business. This means that you are only taught the best technique, strategy, and etiquette.
Your instruction is also intentionally tailored to you. You learn what you need to learn when you should and in an easy to digest way. It is easy to get overwhelmed at the track, and I make sure you can always handle what you need to learn.
I also use as many resources as I can to help us get the most out of your time on track. With onboard video, we can go over each run, turn-by-turn.
All of this goes above and beyond what any other track day offers.

Frequently Asked Questions
What kind of car works?
There aren't too many cars that WONT work. Chances are, even if your car isn't a powerful sports car, you can still have fun. You might even be surprised at what cars you will be passing on the track!
whICH RACEtracks ARE AVAILABLE?
It will depend on the weekend and what track days are available. I will work with you to schedule the right weekend and track for you.
can i bring friends/family?
Of course! A day at the track is best spent with friends and family. I encourage you to let me know how many are coming (for catering) but it is not required.
how will my car be prepared?
It will depend on your car. Some might need nothing more than setting tire pressures, some might need tires, brakes, paint protection, etc. The equipment and installation by professionals is NOT included in our price. However I will arrange with dealers or trusted shops to have it done.
What do i need to bring?
Proper clothing will be required (you will be notified what is needed). Everything else will be taken care of for you.
do you have group rates?
Yes. Send a message with your group's information (number of people, cars, availability). Depending on how many in the group, a full track rental might be available, which would be best.
how far in advance do i have to schedule?
More a month in advanced is best. Less notice can usually be accommodated, but it is more difficult.
How Does Insurance Work?
I work with specialists in track day insurance for the best rates and coverage.
do i need any safety equipment?
If you have your own, you should bring it. If you do not, a helmet, gloves and any other required equipment will be provided for you.
will i be racing anyone?
These will be NON-RACING events. You will be on track to improve your own driving. Through these events, I can guide you through the process of getting race certified. If you have a race prepped car and a race license, I have a full racing program for you.
Question Request Form
If you have any other questions, just ask. I will respond promptly and thoroughly.

Disclaimer
While racing is a year round sport, there are only so many available weekends. Understand that it will be difficult (and some times impossible), to accommodate booking a track day experience less than a month in advance. We will work with you through the scheduling process to get you the best weekend possible. If you would like to book a group, we do have discounted pricing available upon request, but you will NOT be racing one another. For any more questions, please check out the FAQ, drop me a line in the message section of your information request, or give me a call.
Thank you,
