About HOD

Over 2 decades of safe, fast fun

Established in 2004, Hooked On Driving emerged as a premier spot for car enthusiasts seeking to push their limits within the safety of a road course environment. Evolving over the last two decades, Hooked On Driving (HOD) has now ascended to the forefront as the premier organizer of High Performance Driving Experiences (HPDE) nationwide.

We are built around a community of passionate drivers

Founder David Ray built a community of like-minded drivers and a staff of talented coaches with access to some of the best racetracks in the nation. We help and encourage all drivers to become better behind the wheel and believe that time on track translates to safer drivers on public roads.

#1 for safety in the HPDE industry

HOD is not racing. We pride ourselves on having the best safety record in the HPDE industry.

Our events are inclusive and ego-free.

Where we're headed

As of 2024, HOD is owned by the popular car show Everyday Driver. Co-hosts Todd Deeken and Paul Schmucker are thrilled to continue what David Ray built and purchased Hooked On Driving because of its superb record for safety and accessibility to all drivers.

Going forward, expect the same high level of service and safety HOD has become known for, with some new features, venues, and experiences.

If you see Todd or Paul at an event, be sure to say hello! Plus, you can always reach them at TheGuys@HookedOnDriving.com.
