Track-club has announced a series of events aimed at new track day customers or track day novices -- and it's offering a discount for PHers.
The days are run as part of the Motorsport Vision series of novice-only track days and provide a full arrive and drive hire service, but on a novice-only day -- so no racers testing or experienced Radical owners buzzing past like you're standing still.
The offer provides the less frantic members of track-club's fleet, so the PalmerSport JP1 and Caterham CSR 260 won't be available for these events.
The MSV novice days are an ideal format to introduce yourself to driving on track. Following the signing on formalities at the start of the day the safety briefing will cover everything you need to know about the day from rules of a trackday, driving techniques and circuit information. Once driving starts, there will be a ducks and drakes session to ease you into circuit driving, each day begins with a few laps behind a pace car. This will give you the chance to experience each bend at a reduced speed and get a feel for the racing line.
To help you to improve your driving line around the circuit, brake boards and apex cones will provide a constant guide of where your car should be positioned to be as smooth as possible through each corner.
Track-club said it wants to encourage more participants into the track day market and has set up a series of offers for these events that are inclusive of car hire for two drivers, the track fee, fuel, helmet and intercom hire, insurance and a session of tuition.
The day will also include provision of a track simulator to practice your lines and enhance your circuit knowledge when you are not in the car. In addition a track-club instructor will be on hand all day to answer any queries, provide additional circuit tips and help with additional tuition.
Prices vary according to car preferences, with options available including the Renault Clio 182 Cup, Caterham Roadsport B and Lotus Elise.
Cars can be shared between two drivers although additional drivers can be arranged).
