ACU Licence Race School - newbie racers see here!

[G]

For those thinking about having a go at some road (track) racing in the coming year, details for the ACU school day run by bemsee are up:
https://www.bemsee.net

If you want to do road racing in the UK and haven't done before, you have to do something like this.

The day offered by bemsee is very good value compared to the alternatives. Hopefully there will be a bit less snow than last year:

If people need a hand on the day, I could possible help out.

No, it's needed if you want to start racing.

Trackdays only require a road licence. For now.

How long does the acu licences last for ?
And do you have to pay so much per year ?

The reason i'm asking was late last year i done my first track day and i'm planning to do a hell of alot this year.
If in time i get to enjoy it too much i might try and go for the licence and do some races.
thanks for the info

Trackdays are much better value for money on track time.

When you can at least hold your own in the fast group I'd consider looking at racing if you're starting to get bored there.

If I was you, I'd try and get a load of trackdays in this year, then consider racing next year.

Unfortunately everyone tends to speed up torwards the end of the year. Thus, while you might be quick enough to make it worth while towards the end of the year, everyone else will probably have moved on a bit as well.

So who's doing this? Snett is best for me just the dates aren't the best! Is it just the one day G? and does this include the written test or do I have to travel to the acu headquarters for this?

Feeling far too lazy to do this with the weather at the moment

It's including the written test, just the one day.

Think Swaff's friend mark is doing the one at Snetterton.
