Do you need more track time at the drag strip? Are you tired of going to the strip and only getting a few time runs? Do you want to practice your launches, learn new tricks and bike set-ups? Jason Miller’s Streetbike Seminars may be exactly what you are looking for! They are a great way to get some track time and tune-up for an upcoming race. Imagine and empty racetrack all day to yourselves! Some riders have gotten over 30-40 runs in just one day!

These Streetbike Seminars are a test & tune format with scheduled seminars during the day to offer more information that you can use on the track. The seminars are given by Jason Miller on various subjects throughout the day to the group of riders. The riders then practice what they learn during the seminars throughout the day on the race track.

The Streetbike Seminars take place at Maryland International Raceway and the track has VIP suites with air conditioning that are located in the race control tower. They are great for cooling off between your passes as well. In addition to the unlimited track time and seminars, there will be drinks and a catered “hot lunch” in a VIP suite in the timing tower!
Each day consists of various seminars listed in the schedule below. Be sure to read the questions and answers section at the bottom of this site for more information.

Contact us today for availability and book your date before it fills up. We are looking forward to working with you!

If your date is available, and you would like to book your slot then click on the following RSVP FORM and send in with your payment to address at the top of this site. We will contact you with confirmation once your payment is received. If you have anyone coming with you and they would like a lunch also be sure to include an extra $10 for their lunch.

            
                         Cancellations
Once you book your date it is non-refundable. If you cannot make the seminar date you signed up for, you will not be eligible for a refund or transfer to another date, as you held a position on that date. We are very sorry about this, but the expenses on these days are high. If you cannot attend your seminar date, you may transfer it to a friend for that day so it doesn't go to waste. Just notify us who is taking your place for that day at jmiller@mirdrag.com and we will put them in your place. If you do not transfer it to someone else, and you do not show up then regretfully your spot is gone.
 

Rainouts
In the event of a rainout, Jason will give you an option to reschedule to another date or receive a credit

 
                   MIROCK Events at MIR
The Fridays before MIROCK events are no longer a part of the Streetbike Seminars. The Fridays before MIROCK events at MIR will now be an open test session from 9am-5pm with no limit on entries. The cost is now $100 per bike, not per rider. You will not need to sign up, pay in advance, or RSVP anymore for these Fridays. You can just show up and pay your $100 at the track on that Friday to test. Once again, this is only on the Fridays before MIROCK, not the dates listed above. There will be no more lunches on the Fridays before MIROCK events, so be sure to bring your own. This will make things easier on the MIROCK racers.

                   Questions & Answers

What safety gear do I need?
All riders in all seminars must have at least one year of general motorcycle riding experience. Also, all riders must have leather jacket, leather pants, SNELL approved full face helmet, leather gloves, and boots.

Can I bring a friend or family?
Yes you can bring a friend or family member, and there is no charge for them. However, if they wish to eat lunch the caterer charges $10 for each friend or family member. Please let Jason know a head count in advance, so the caterer is prepared. If you do not submit their payment with your RSVP form we will not have enough lunch for them.

What safety equipment do I need? You must have a full face SNELL approved helmet, full leathers, leather gloves, and boots. You do not need a kill switch.

What bike am I going to ride? Everyone brings their own bike, after all that is the bike you want to learn how to go fast on right?

Can Jason teach me how to ride a bike? No, that is not what these days are designed for, this is not a school. Everyone must have at least one year of general riding experience. You do not need any experience at the racetrack however. These days are for riders to learn how to drag race or improve their current skills at the dragstrip.

Is there anything I should do to my bike before I come? That is entirely up to you. You don’t have to do any mods to come to the seminars. We do strongly recommend that all Hayabusa owners install the “clutch mod” before coming.

Can I come early and camp at MIR? Yes you may come early and camp if you have a motorhome. We will knock on your door and even give you a wake up call.

What time should I show up? We recommend that everyone arrive at 8:30am. We start things off at 9:00am sharp and you don’t want to miss introductions and the rider’s meeting.

Should I bring spare clutches? There should be no need to bring any. You will get an enormous amount of track time, however we try to get riders to only make a few passes at a time to let the bike cool down, so the clutches last. However, you can bring spare clutches if you have the tools to install yourself.

Can I get an IHRA license while I am there? Yes you can get your IHRA license here, we even have all the forms here for you as well. Sorry, we cannot do NHRA licences.

Can I ride more than one bike? Yes each rider that is signed up for the seminar can ride up to two bikes.

Does my bikes have to be street legal to attend? No it doesn’t have to be a Streetbike. However most of the seminars are geared towards Streetbike skills.

I am a road racer, will these seminars help me get to first turn in front of the pack? We have had many road racers come to these seminars for help. And we have had great reviews and helped many road racers get through that grid quick and on the brakes at first turn quicker than ever before.

Can I bring a nitrous or turbo bike? Yes you can. However, we do not have a nitrous filling station available on seminar days, so bring full bottles.

Do you have air and water available? Yes we have plenty of air & water locations.

Are we allowed to bring a video camera? Absolutely, we even encourage it! Take it back home and study some more!

What is the “Reaction time Seminar" about? It helps racers improve consistency on their reaction times. Jason Miller has some trade secrets that he has learned through some of the best bracket racers in the country and some of the best pro tree racers on the strip!

What is the “Timing System Seminar" about? This seminar is a “must know” for all racers going down the track. It explains, rollout, auto-start, time-outs, official procedures, and ways to cut away a few hundredths from your 60’ time.

What is the “60’ & 330’ Seminar" about? This seminar is definitely the most popular. It explains how to go faster in the areas that count the most (the first 60 feet of the track and the first 330 feet of the track). Jason Miller has professional racers make exhibition passes as he narrates what to be watching for. Also, Jason explains secret techniques used to really get your times lower.
