Yeh, I am confused I can add the trackday to my basket. Where do I add the tyres to my basket or do I just need them on my bike when I turn up.

Participating dealer list ... right there. Order tyres from them. (I used B&C Performance Tyres)

Buy tyres - Keep receipt then book on the track day via:

https://shop.powerdays.co.uk/

You can do as many as you like... smile

Yes, you need them on the bike when you turn up at the TD along with the receipt from a participating dealer.

No dealer can tell me if i need to buy them now to book it or if i can book the trackday then buy tyres just before the event have them fitted.

Seems daft to buy tyres now when i wont use them for 4 months and id go through a few sets anyway.

Anyone got experience on the slick or the cup. They will be fine just wondering what to get.

It doesn't matter.

You can book and buy the tyres after... you just need to be on the tyres for the track day and have the receipt.

Simple.

I didn't as bought the tyres last month when offer wasn't on. Cashback is against purchase this month.

You'll get a pre-paid credit card IIRC.

£25 on two tyres IIRC.

Call the dealer wink
