The concept of our Trackdays

Enrol in one of our track days on the Mas du Clos circuit to spend the day driving your car with no specific vehicle categories (open pit lane) and with only a limited number of vehicles. Enjoy a possible 6 ½ hours driving (09:00-12:00 then 14:00-17:30) 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
