Trackdays in UK for Frenchies ?

Hi,

I'm interested on riding my Ducati on one of your nice tracks you've
got, you happy poeple. Or perhaps my ol' 1988 GSXR can be engaged in
some kind of Classic races ?

My preferred (as seen on TV) is Brands Hatch, but any track could do.

Are there trackdays opened to foreign riders, like Belgians do at Spa ?
And what about the licence (not the *driving* licence, perhaps bad
wording - I own a National Licence from the French Federation

Thanks for advices,

PS : of course, it never rains in UK, but if it occurs, I do like riding
on wet tracks

 

UK track day organisers want to see your *driving* licences not racing
licence. Not sure what the regulations are for entering a race are if it
is not an international event.

There are always one or two Dutch riders at the Morini day at Cadwell
Park every year.

Having done a couple of track days in France (not put on by UK
organisers) I think the insurance arrangements may be different.
When I did days at Mas du Clos and Charade I had to show that I had
'responsibilité civile' cover. In the UK all they want to see is your
driving licence and your money.

One of the guys I race with is our resident Froggie, so he'll
be able to provide you with some info on both UK Trackdays for
the French, as well as racing if that's what you meant rather
than just trackday riding.

His site is here: http://www.tonio82.co.uk/desmodue/

 

Eh ?? How can I have raced with you, mate. I don't even have a bike
anymore..

OK, I know him, I just didn't realize that he's living now in UK
