LAGUNA SECA AND NOISE MONITORING
All bikes are measured for sound, every lap. If your bike exceeds 92dB it will be flagged off the course. If you adhered to our stock-only rule you will be allowed to ride until a 3rd violation (two attempts to quiet it).
If you ignore our stock-only rule, insisting your bike is quiet enough, you will be allowed to ride until just one noise violation. Then that bike/pipe is done for the day.
Laguna only cares about 92dB, not stock. Even a stock bike can be too loud for Laguna, though it is rare. Our stock-only rule is to keep the day fun and free of interference, and to be sure we are good citizens by following Laguna's rules (so we get invited back!).
RIDER LIST NAMING CONVENTION (FYI)
As always, rider lists can be viewed by clicking on any specific date on our event schedule page. We have made a change in how names are displayed, for privacy reasons.
Instead of displaying full names (which can be discovered using a search engine such as Google's) we now show the rider's first name and only the first two letters of the last name, as a single word. The rest of the surname will appear as hyphens.
For example, rider John Smith will now appear as JohnSm---.
It should be easy enough to identify your name, when checking to see your order was processed properly. And of course you may still use our search feature (upper right corner of the page) by entering your name as registered in our database.

Get your license to go club racing with the AFM
KEIGWINS certifies riders to club race with the AFM, one of the oldest and most prestigious amateur racing organizations in the country.
We make it easy: Sign up for any of the New Racer Schools (NRS) on our calendar. Passing this one day school gets you a license. For maximum fun we include a full trackday with the NRS! (You're in class between your riding sessions.)
Note: the NRS is not required for trackday riding. It is ONLY for club racing with the American Federation of Motorcyclists.)
Thanks for stopping by. You can jump right in and order your track day or school, or you can browse this site to learn more about our program before deciding. The up-to-date 2012 Event Schedule shows our complete offering of schools and trackdays, indicates availability status and services offered.
Our track events offer a wide variety to appeal to different rider interests but they all share our simple philosophy that becoming a better, safer rider demands controlled conditions, capable help, and a well run program. There is no safer place or better learning environment than a racetrack, and no program more demanded than ours.
We have more than twelve years experience running hundreds of events for thousands of riders. We've learned what you want and enjoy. That's why Keigwins@theTrack events are California's most popular.
- Our acclaimed two-day schools focus on specific riding levels: novice and intermediate. Each offers maximum track time and one-on-one help from our staff of 25 regular instructors, classroom lessons on key topics, and training through on-track demonstrations and critique. Since students share similar abilities, lessons are targeted to your level.
- Non-school events ("trackdays") offer two formats: Two or three groups, where riders are separated according to speed and skill, and groups rotate time on the track. Trackdays are perfect for working on skills and building confidence without concerns over the hazards of the street. For maximum fun bring a buddy!
- New Racer Schools ("NRS") certify riders for racing with the American Federation of Motorcyclists (AFM). The AFM is the country's oldest racing club, and offers riders the chance to compete in numerous classes at premier racetracks in California. Our schedule page lists dates for these NRS schools (and they are conveniently packaged with a full track day!).
We work hard to ensure your safety. Our events are closely supervised by professional corner workers and by our on-track instructors. We never crowd the track in spite of demand. Unsafe, overly aggressive riding is never tolerated.
We are proud to be a very popular track event host, with a strong reputation for customer satisfaction, a no-nonsense approach to safety, and a compulsion for organization. Feel free to see why our events are preferred and check out feedback from our customers.
If you have any questions not answered on this website, please call or write. We are very good about returning email and phone calls, and if we are away at the track we attend to them just as soon as we return.
For those interested in keeping up with changes (new event dates, notices and details about the events, etc.) it is strongly recommended you join the Keigwins email list. It is a very quiet list with important announcements only rarely mailed.
Ride safely, and ride well. But please take the fast stuff off the street and onto the track!
