 3.⁠ ⁠EVENT FORMAT

How are drivers grouped?

Drivers are placed into fixed groups of five and remain paired with the same instructor throughout the day. This creates continuity, familiarity and more personalised development.

What is the maximum number of cars?

Events are limited to 25 cars — low numbers by design.

 4.⁠ ⁠LICENSING, AGE & EXPERIENCE

What licence do I need?

Most participants are experienced drivers and enthusiasts, though coaching is tailored individually to driver experience and confidence levels.

Yes.

Most briefing requirements are completed digitally in advance through the secure Participant Portal, including:

Aggressive or dangerous driving will not be tolerated.

What about noise limits?

All vehicles must comply with the venue’s static and drive-by noise limits. Limits are listed on each individual event page.

Vehicles exceeding circuit noise limits may be refused access by the venue. Entry fees remain non-refundable in these circumstances.
