Rajini Academy of Competitive Racing was instituted by Rajini Krishnan-one of India's most successful motorcycle racers on September 2015 at the Madras Motor Race Track at Chennai.
It has been his dream to start a motorcycle riding and competitive racing training academy. The reason is twofold, to help riders develop their inherent potential and two, to be able to give back something to this sport that has made him what he is, today. He is a Nine-time India National Champion, Qatar 600 cc Champion and also the 2015 Malaysia Superbike Champion in the open Class category(1000cc).

He brings to play many years of pure track riding and racing experience. To augment our expertise, our roster includes exceptionally talented champions from India and abroad as instructors.

While all this specialized training can help riders hone their skills to exemplary levels, more than anything else at the end of the day, we hope that our students can go out there and really enjoy riding their motorcycles with greater skill and expertise.

• Why should I do Track school?


The majority of our students just want to be better riders, not racers. What you learn in class, will make you a better, safer rider on the street. Street riders find that they are smoother and more confident after attending a class with RACR. As always, we do not recommend high speed riding on the street. Save that for the track. Remember, a track day costs far less than breaking the law.
Our emphasis is on technique, smoothness and rhythm which is what every rider wishes to accomplish. We define and discuss types of turns, road and elevation changes, and parts of the turn: entrance, mid-corner and exit, setting up for the turns and how to put it all together. Anyone can go fast in a straight line, it's how your corner that sets you apart from the average rider. Being relaxed and smooth on the bike is every rider's ultimate goal. After that, it's easy to go fast.
