OPP Trackdays

OPP Trackdays is proud to provide current and future oppracing.com customers the opportunity to experience the world class Area 27 racetrack in Oliver, BC. OPP Trackdays is committed to offering fun, controlled, safe and professional trackdays for motorcycle riders to improve their skills. The racetrack is the best place for motorcycle riders to learn how to become safer, better, smarter and more capable riders.

Safety is the primary concern and there are strict passing rules for each group that will be monitored by OPP Trackday Staff. New or less experienced trackday riders will be led in small groups by OPP Control Riders for the first few sessions so that they learn the track and get comfortable. OPP Control Riders will be on track in all groups to monitor riding and will be available to give guidance where needed.

OPP Trackdays runs 3 groups that alternate 20 minute sessions to suit riders of all skill levels:

Relaxed Group: For first time trackday riders, newer trackday riders or less experienced trackday riders.

Advanced Group: Highly advanced street riders, riders with extensive trackday experience and licensed racers.
