Do we know if the BDD will be on the road circuit / OVAL / or both ?? The club office didn't seem to know when I called them |

Hi David
Sorry I have not replyed before but this Rockingham do is taking up all my time. No resone you shuold not take you car on the track you may not be as fast as the M3s. I have be told you can learn a lot about driving on the road from track sessions. Remember you must have all your documents for the road to go on the track. You should have track day insurance if you bend it you are not covered. Hope you can come its going to be a great day. Regards |

Forgot to answer you question whats a Show & Shine its a lesser version of concours. It includes modified cars but you car must be VERY CLEAN. In side and out and a bit of under bonnet cleaning goes along way.OK? |

This is my first Better Driving Day, so I have questions about a helmet (which I do not currently have): I understand a helmet is required on the track.
What specification/standard does the helmet have to meet? Can I rent (or borrow) one on the day? If I can borrow or rent, should I buy one now anyway (assuming I don't frighten myself at Rockingham), ready for this event and hopefully future events? Thanks Dave |
