THE TEAM & THE ALUMNI

ALUMNI

Our programs have benefited a wide range of individuals, from rookies in their 60s to teenagers transitioning from karts into cars. Both men and women have achieved great results through our training. We’ve coached drivers who have gone on to win in prestigious series like Indy Lights, NASCAR, IMSA Prototypes, and Formula Atlantic, among many others worldwide.

Don’t let age or inexperience hold you back. We believe that just like anything else, practice and personalized coaching are key to success. Contact us to discuss your goals, and we’ll create a customized plan to help you get a jump start and reach them, leveraging our years of experience.

VMB DRIVER DEVELOPMENT

VMB Driver Development has used World Speed training since its inception. World Speed helps create future champions by focusing on “perfect practice” instead of just driving endless laps.

Every session on the track is carefully planned and then thoroughly reviewed using data and video analysis. This allows coaches to pinpoint exactly where a driver can improve, letting them customize future training drills.
