The safest and most exhilarating way to learn what your TR can do is to explore its performance on a track day with like-minded friends!
Why a TR track day is different
Driving your TR at speed is one of the joys of owning a sports car. However, as the roads have got busier, driving fast on public roads is not only dangerous but also highly irresponsible. The safe way to enjoy speed in your classic is on the track.
Commercial track days in a classic car are often a nightmare, especially for track day novices. You are usually on the track with cars with far greater speeds and braking powers; you spend the entire session looking out for the next pocket rocket to appear in your mirrors.
Come to our Castle Combe TR Register track day on Monday, 27th April, and all the cars will be cherished classics, driven by people with a mindset similar to yours – the ideal environment for novices and regulars alike.
Instructor support for both track day regulars and novices
Instruction, if you want it, will be from Tim Nash, an Association of Race Drivers School instructor. Drivers from the TR Register Sprint and Hillclimb Championship will also be on hand to offer help and advice.
Accommodation
At the time of writing, the Premier Inn, Chippenham (just 5 miles from the circuit) was offering rooms from just £45.

Format
We will have 48 cars running in groups of 12 every 15 minutes. Later, the event moves to an open pitlane set-up with up to 12 vehicles allowed on the circuit at any time. This will ensure everyone gets plenty of track time and minimises any queuing.
The first three laps of the first session for each of the four groups will be behind a circuit course car. These sighting laps are designed to familiarise you with the circuit and teach you the correct racing lines. Cones will mark braking and turning in points and apexes.
