Why buy from us?
Obtaining your race licence is the first step into Racing. The ARDS test contains both written and practical elements, in both cases the student must meet minimum standards in order to pass.
With any exam or test, there may inevitably be some nerves and apprehension at the unknown elements contained in the test and like any other exam, preparation is vital to ensure you make the standard.
We offer pre-ARDS preparation courses which are suitable for anyone who feels they would like to understand what is required before actually taking the test itself.
This consists of 1-2 hours at the venue before the actual course takes place and offers insight into both written and driving requirements of the test.
In our experience, you will vastly improve your chance of a first-time pass with the Pre-ARDS preparation course.

Our ethos is that your 'experience' should begin from the moment you first browse the site and we can deliver this because of:
- Unlike other experience companies we don't just sell you a voucher and leave you to call the supplier to book yourself. We manage your entire booking process from A - Z saving you time and money on phone calls.
- We have been a booking agent for track days and experience days since 2003 and have built trusted relationships with all of the venues and suppliers. The owner and manager of trackdays.co.uk have both been around since the first launch and their combined knowledge of the industry is passed down to all new members of staff.
- We have vetted each venue and supplier and at least one of our team will have experienced the event first hand meaning we can give you honest, non-biased advice about what you are ordering.
- You are able to do your entire booking online, but if you do need to call us, our average answer time on our standard rate number is 20 seconds. Even during peak times when the phones are busier, you have the option to chat with us live online or email your enquiry.
- Once you have booked a date, we will help to ensure that you get the tickets in time for your event and will liaise with the suppliers on your behalf should you have any enquires.
- All of our customers are invited to review our service and the service of the operator running the event. As a returning customer you will be eligable for a trackdays discount code to use on your next purchase.
