Je parle Francais mais.... I'm struggling to think of what to ask for when trying to see if circuits within striking distance of an August holiday destination in France may have track days available. Yet can't translate 'track day'....!

Thanks in advance

One of the biggest problems you will find is August. Everybody in France takes a holiday in August, including a lot of staff at circuits and ther clients who attend trackdays.

You will also find that you will need RC insurance, it does not cost a lot as it only covers general 3rd party liabilities, but it can be a "do not pass GO" barrier.

If you are in northern France, you may well find LoT a good answer for your 964RS.

The required insurance can easily be obtained online and only costs about twenty to thirty euros.As already mentioned though, August can be a problem as the place shuts down and everyone heads to the coast.

Hy Russ, where do you buy assurance RC online?

I used to send by post to Lyon, but they stopped and so now I always look for TDOs who can offer it.

My track car has neither CT, or matriculation.
