TRACKDAY INFORMATION >>

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

A TYPICAL TRACKDAY >>

 

Driving on a race circuit is not only enormous fun, but also incredibly rewarding.  You can experience the smoothness and capabilities of your car and your own driving ability every time you drive over the start finish line and complete another lap of your favourite circuit.

 

Our trackdays are designed for regular trackday drivers as well as complete novices who have never driven on a circuit before.  Prior to driving your car, you will be given a full safety briefing and familiarisation laps of the circuit by our instructors.

 

If you are unsure about any aspect of attending a Heritage Trackday, please do not hesitate to call our club office, where a member of the trackday team will be pleased to answer any questions.

 

Our trackdays are designed to give you the maximum amount of time on circuit, whilst ensuring plenty of relaxation in between your driving sessions.  We operate a “3 Group” system that offers you the perfect balance of enjoyment and rest and gives you two and a half hours of total track time – more than a Grand Prix.

 

 

CAR PREPARATION >>

Prior to driving on circuit we ask you to undertake a "Visual Safety Check". Whilst it is not our intention to "scrutinize" your car, we must ensure you and your car are safe prior to leaving the pit lane.

 

 

q       Ensure you have displayed your Group letter and number given to you at registration in the appropriate place.

q       Empty all loose articles from inside your car, including the boot.

q       Ensure your indicators and brake lights are in working order.

q       If you have a towing hook, ensure it is in place prior to going on circuit.

q       Ensure you have sufficient fuel to complete your session.

q       Ensure there are no fluid leaks.

q       Increase tyre pressures by approx 5lbs front and rear.

q       Windows and sunroofs must be closed.
