Track days

[robbiehall]

Has anyone seen the rumours Superbike have picked up about Trackdays next year??

The claims are that the ACU will enforce licences on any riders wishing to use a race track....or that Insurance Companies will not cooperate with trackday organisers....

The thought also is that the prices will rise (double ??)

Can't believe the circuits or trackday organisers will be too happy...

I think there is no change required at the moment.

What do you think???

Cheers
Rob

I think more people should come to Cadwell on October 13 - BCF last trackday of the season spectacular*.

* The organisers take no responsibility if the event fails to be spectacular.

There should be a fair few of us going to Cadwell (well at least 5 , but quite possibly a few more booking late).

It’s £89 for the track day.
Our plan is to go up north on the Saturday, stay at Stew&M’s that night, then do a days drag racing at Elvington on the Sunday, then camp at Cadwell on Sunday night and do the track day on Monday.


I haven’t heard anything about the rumours regarding ACU licences. Hopefully I will have one next year anyway. At the moment ACU licence-days (ie practice days before races etc) tend to be a fair bit cheaper than normal track days AFAIK.
There’s also new rules coming to say that you have to go to a ‘Race school’ I believe, to get your ACU licence.

Better get lots of practice in and do my test then, though I need money and a clutch first

You can go on a provisonal licence, providing you're riding a bike appropriate to your licence.

However, no offence intended, with your riding experience at the moment, on your bike, at Cadwell park, it would be a very bad idea.
Especially if you did try to ride quickly.

So I could take my nsr out with my provisional and cbt....

Hmmm.

Check with the company first, but generally you're allowed to ride whatever you're licenced to ride.

Cadwell is a fairly complex track, so to everyone that's going as a first track day I'd advise they take it extra cautiously until they get to know bits of the track.

Hi

That Monday is the day after the MCN weekend at Butlins. They have an MCN trackday there (very informal) on the Saturday. Not sure how much they would want you to pay to get in for the day.

We are probably going to go up on the Saturday to take some pics.

All the best

I'd leave it untill some time next year, when you've got more used to your bike.

If you can control yourself and not push it on a track, you'd probably be fine.
However I /do/ have to push it when I'm on a track, wouldn't go if I didn't .

This will probably be the last one we do for this year, try and start again sometime early next year.

Also you've got to remember that you'd have to get there somehow... it's going to be quite a trek to cadwell on a ar125 .
