About Us
Welcome to the Longhorn Motorcycle School web site. We are glad you found us, and soon you will be too. LMS began as an idea among friends to give area riders access to the track at MSR Houston. What began as a few close friends has become LMS today, the best way to experience the thrill of a closed circuit track environment.
 
As avid riders ourselves, we had done all of the tracks in Texas with all the other providers and found we still wanted something more. More seat time, more help in problem areas, better organization, and experienced instructors to guide you toward your riding goals. Every staff member at LMS is dedicated to helping you become a better, safer, and faster rider.
 
Most of our events are run on Saturdays with an occasional Sunday on regular member days at MSR Houston. Half hour sessions starting at 9am with the final session of the day at 4pm means a full four hours on the track. Our group is designated by speed with reliance on the rider to be truthful in their abilities.

Novice
Novice only days are geared with the new or inexperienced rider in mind. This is the place to start to get your feet wet in the track riding world. Novice days are very instruction oriented with class room sessions between session from 9:30 - 2:30. Topics such as line selection, braking, acceleration, body position make up the class room fare. Video is also used to show riders how they actually look vs. how they feel. Lap times are generally slower and passing is restricted in certain areas of the track. Instructor to student ratio is 3:1 max and is limited to 30 riders. Limited Novice days are offer each year, check the schedule for the next one.
Regular
Regular run group is the most frequent and most popular event. This is our core group of riders, most of whom attend 70% of all dates. The "Regulars" are an easy going bunch who feel more like a riding club than a track day. Lots of bench racing between these sessions as we all share tips and lines among ourselves. Instruction and video is available and included, there is always and instructor faster than you who can help you through to the next level in your riding. CCS license classes are available on these days to get your CCS Novice racer status for those who wish to take it to the next level. Lap times are lower and the passing is left to your good judgment.
Racer
Racer prep days are usually held the week before CCS or CMRA race weekends come to MSR Houston. These runs are reserved for licensed racers and the very fastest from the regular group. Lap times are very fast and the ability to hold a line are critical. You will be passed close and you will be passed often at any place on the track. Not for the faint of heart or those lacking some serious skill on a bike. You must hold a valid race license or get approval from the staff to attend race prep.
