HOW IT WORKS
WHAT OUR DRIVERS AND PARENTS SAY
"Throughout the day we watched our initially very shy and nervous 9 year old gain confidence, Resulting in him now wanting to compete in races. It was so good to see the smiles and listen to him talk about how much he enjoyed it."
Liam
PARENT
"What a superb setup. This is everything a young budding racer needs. The equipment, the staff, the coaches, the admin team. It made an incredible day and can’t wait for the next!"
