HELP!! HOW DO I GO RACING - A FIRST TIMERS GUIDE

1. The very first thing is to get an ACU licence, the ACU is the governing body of motorsport.

You will have to go on an ACU training course (CTC Course) at the ACU headquarters in Rugby, or with Hottrax Motorsport at selected venues early in the year.

Once you have done the course you need to prove you can ride a motorcycle:

To obtain your Competition Licence you must also prove your competence to ride a motorcycle. You can do this in one of the following ways:-
• Obtain a certificate of competence from an ACU recognised track-based training school and attach this to your licence application form.
• If you hold a valid DVLA Class A driving licence attach a photocopy of this to your licence application form.
• If you have held an ACU Competition Licence for a minimum of one year for any off-road discipline attach a photocopy of this, along with a result sheet from a race, to your licence application form.

2. You will then need to get an eye test and maybe a medical, full details are on the
