First Trackday - any advice ?
Discussion
Hey guys, newbie here!
Any advice for first trackday? Taking my car up to Knockhill this wkend for the first time, any hints or tips much appreciated.
When I booked it in, girl advised I should be fine with Top Marques event - true ? (hope so!!)
I'm hoping to hire a helmet up there, and will obviously fill up with V power before the event, and remove any loose objects from the cabin - anything other than that I should be thinking about ?
Cheers !

Good advice guys thanks!
Take it you get some sort of safety debrief first ?
When they say 1-4pm, do they mean be there for 1pm or be there before ? I've got football in Greenock in the morning, won't get off the park till almost 12 :O I'll probably find myself going faster to get to knockhill than I will once I get there
I'll keep my eyes open for you stang, you'l probably be rocketing past me while I'm snailing it round

Weather forcast looks good and if you do make it though i doubt you will then have a great day as it is a fantastic experience. You will really appreciate all the hype with Porsches after you take it out on track.
Yea I realise that I'm gonna try leave about half 11 and make haste! Sat nav says 1 hour 20, so I'll just have to shave off the 20 Rafferj said:
Cheers for that info.
Hmm, gives me around 40 mins to get there from Greenock, oh the joys! :O
Think I'll be feigning injury around the 70 min mark and going for an early shower
See you guys there !
Hi, you wont get to Knockhill in 40mins from Greenock - No chance. Especially as Kingston bridge will be busy around 12:30 and you are only half way there. Safety breifing is essential if its your first time on track and its down to the Knockhill guys descretion if they let you on without the safety breifing.Hmm, gives me around 40 mins to get there from Greenock, oh the joys! :O

Thats good to know, thanks.
I'm going to leave as early as physically possible, so will hopefully be there on time or nearly on time.
Spoke to a helpful lady at Knockhill today who said I can do registration anytime between 12-1.
Is helpful to know I should be ok to get a later safety briefing If I get held up.
Be gentle with me guys
