Trackdays – Driving on the La Ferté Gaucher circuit

Trackdays limited to 45 enrolments for 20 cars on the track at any one time (open pit lane).

 

The concept of our Trackdays

Enrol in one of our track days on the La Ferté Gaucher circuit to spend the day driving your car on the circuit where there are no specific vehicle categories (open pit lane) with only a limited number of vehicles. Enjoy a possible 7 ½ hours driving (08:30-12:00 then 13:30-17:30) for a maximum of pleasure in a friendly atmosphere.

We have been organising these Trackdays for several years now. Every year we organize about 50 Trackdays on some of the most beautiful circuits in France: Charade, Magny-Cours, Le Mans, Le Castellet, Dijon-Prenois, Nogaro, Val de Vienne, Le Mas du Clos,etc…

Safety and quality of driving are our main priorities :

  • We attach particular attention to the compliance of the safety regulations on the track. Drivers who are responsible for dangerous driving will be cautioned and if necessary banned from driving on the circuit.
  • We limit the number of drivers on the track in order to provide optimum driving conditions.
  • We limit the number of enrolments in order to maximize driving time with an open pit lane.
  • We accept with pleasure racing teams who will be able to integrate respectfully into our days

 

The La Ferté Gaucher circuit

With its 3.6km long track, the La Ferté Gaucher circuit, located in the department of la Seine-et- Marne near Paris, is the biggest track in Ile-de-France. Technical and modern, this circuit and its infrastructures have been attracting drivers for more than 15 years.

Created in 2008, the La Ferté Gaucher circuit was designed by the famous Austrian engineer Frantz Schreiner. It was designed to meet three main requirements: be dedicated to training and leisure, be homologated for cars and motorcycles and comply with strict sustainable development rules. The LFG circuit has 3 different tracks : the 1.6km technical track, the 2km fast track and the big 3.6 km track which connects the two smaller tracks. It is on this 3.6 km track with its 14 corners and 500m straight, that you will drive during one of our Trackdays.
