About ERA Racing School

ERA is a classic racing school, with lots of attention for improvement of your racing skills. We use video and data analyses to make you better driver. But also attention for media and sponsorship training, financing and nutrition are part of the school program.

Xavier wants to provide young race drivers with a fair and square image of the exciting world of motorsport. Participants can expect honest advice from a driver who already ‘walked the track’.

Racing is not only about being fast on track. There are so many more determining factors in a racedriver's career. Some can be influenced by yourself, some are not in your hands. ERA Racing School helps and supports young and ambitious pilots to become more complete, well prepared, professional race drivers.

A successful career is not only determined by raw speed. It is also about gathering the right people around you, about making the right choices and taking the logical steps along the path you’re following.

ERA Racing School is a game changer. For example, it is the world’s first racing school using electric formula cars. Driving electric is ideally suited for the purpose of the Racing School, as we only have one gear and can fully focus on driving ideal lines and learning how to race.

That does not mean participants will only be prepared for racing in electric series. The opposite is true. The skills you learn will be useful in all series and classes, from karting to touring cars to formula racing.

It is inevitable that part of the future of motorsports will be in more eco-friendly, ERA Racing School acknowledges and embraces this development. Last but certainly not least, ERA is very much about the fun and thrills of racing.
