Jaguar R Perfomance Academy

For drivers who bought a 2010 Jaguar XKR or XFR, dreams will become reality. The English car maker has unveiled the launch of its R Performance Academy, starting December 1st with a session at the Homestead Miami Speedway, USA. Unfortunately for our European readers, there is no news on a European package.

Participants will experience multiple types of driving. The academy will help drivers to fully explore the capabilities of the vehicles and train new skills and techniques, such as:

  • Maximum acceleration using various Jaguar Drive Control settings
  • Braking – and experiencing complete ABS stopping
  • Emergency lane changes
  • Dynamic Mode and DSC Off mode handling
  • Cornering
  • Autocross (slalom course)
  • Full laps at speed with driving coach and hot laps with racing drivers

After the initial Homestead Miami Speedway session, the Jaguar R Performance Academy will host events at the Las Vegas Motor Speedway, Monticello Motor Club in Monticello, New York and the Auto Club Speedway in Fontana, California, among others, on a quarterly basis.
