Today Kevin York announced that he has agreed terms with Hooked on Driving (HOD), a high performance track day and performance driving school, to join them as Chief Driving Coach and Group Leader for the Northeast Region.

Speaking of Kevin's agreement to join the HOD team, Northeast Region Owner Operator Joe Mills said,

"I am looking forward very much to working with (Kevin)! He certainly ha(s) a very impressive competition, driving and coaching resume. (We are) thrilled and honored to have (him) participate as a coach with Hooked on Driving."

Hooked on Driving was established by David Ray as a track day organization that emphasizes safety, fun, and improving one's driving skills in an encouraging environment.

Hooked On Driving puts drivers of street cars from all manufacturers on a closed road course with a coach in the passenger seat to help guide them through the fundamentals of performance driving in a no-pressure atmosphere. Learn "the line," what an apex turn is, and gain a more in-depth appreciation for your cars true performance potential. The event groups drivers by experience and skill level and offers teaching sessions after each session on the racetrack. Session times will be broken down by experience levels so beginners don’t have to worry about making a mistake or getting in the way of those with more track time. The Hooked On Driving Program truly caters to drivers of all levels and can help anyone gain confidence and skills behind the wheel.

Each group has five track sessions during the day which is time enough to wear out most drivers - and create a lifetime memory. All you need to provide is a car in good working order (of any brand), a helmet, and a desire to learn and have fun. Lunch is provided too!

Kevin will join the HOD Team at the HOD Northeast Region's April 23-24th event at Watkins Glen International Raceway in New York state.
