Training Schools / Scholarship:

They also do driver training schools, and run a lease race option for drivers.

couldn't  and wouldn't of come such a long way in such little time if it was not for the effort Dennis and the team at Sabre Motorsport put in to help me to learn, develop, and adapt. Within 40 days I went from never being on a racetrack, to 2 training schools, making finals day at scholarship and getting my first win at my first ever race w.e.Chris Symon
