TIME ATTACK Track Day in March

TIME ATTACK Track Days are designed to allow motorcycle and sports car enthusiast to enjoy driving in controlled conditions without random traffic and law enforcement. Track Days are not races, but allow the driver to run at their pace and enjoy the capability of their car/ bike/ ATV.

‘Time Attack’ offers the man on the street an opportunity to experience being on a race track and gives them an insight into Motorsport. Its purely an experience and there is no competition involved.
The track days are even structured in such a way that a group of friends could come in a car and share the driving or even just Arrive and Drive from a choice of Racing cars ( FISSME and ESTEEM).
