Arrive and drive

[tann2k]

Hello everyone, I'm doing my Ards soon with a view to get racing later in the year. Can anyone reccomend a budget arrive and drive package to dip my toe before I commit to buying my own race car ? I'm not bothered about anything high powered, mx5s, c1s, clios etc are the sort of thing I'm looking for.
Thanks, Will

Tegiwa are renting out their EP3 trophy r car. Think it’s £1200 for a double header with option to buy at a discounted price afterwards.

A really good bunch of lads & lasses with excellent driving standards

Think most C1's are 1k upwards for 1hr+ in a race, EnduroKa's probably similar. you'll get 2x Sig's if you do more than an hour.

What grid are the 116's part of this year? they were road sports last year and club enduro races are 2hrs+ I think.

116 Had their own grid from Snetterton last year.

This year we are expecting 20 cars plus each round. Somewhere around 44 roll cages have been sold

Do some track days in your own car to get a feel for it, then decide later if you want to invest the time and money.

Thanks for everyones responses, I do several trackdays a year and an annual ring trip which I love but it just doesnt have the competitive side which I'm sure id enjoy !
