Practice day costs?
 

Well I'm in it to win it, and practice is what I'm deffinatly going to need practice to make it happen, but does anyone know how much say brands Friday practice day is as I can't find any prices on it? and does it just work like an open pit lane TD?

What's a practice day? Is that different from an ACU test day?

Re: Practice day costs?
 

You on about the ACU test days?

If so, its usually by class (numbers limited) first come first served and there's usually a couple of mixed classes.
Cost varies between clubs and circuits.

Its normally run on a Friday, the day before the racing so you can get use to the track if haven't ridden it before, make changes to the bike ect.

I'd check on motofourm, i'm sure racers there will be able to advise you best.

You can't just buy track time on a practice day though surely. A Friday or Saturday practice will be part of your entry fees and only available to people racing at that meet.

I think superfly is on about something else isn't he?

Croft is supposed to be running a testing day on the Friday before our first meeting of the season (last weekend in March).
Just checked on their website and it says the cost for test days are £132 for 5x20 min sessions-so sounds like they're running it in groups.
If it's testing i'd imagine it'll be an open pit lane during the session.

Apparently I gather that the practice day is the day before a race "weekend" usually a friday unless bank holiday weekend. I have no idea if it is part of the entry fee with bemsee or not, but the way it's worded I thought not. I know it's only open to the racers of the event.

Re: Practice day costs?
 

Ah, so it's like an extra practice session you can buy before your weekend only then. Makes sense.

Could you not just do a couple of trackdays? Or were you wanting to time your sessions as well?

Re: Practice day costs?
 

Didn't know if it was cheaper to do practice days or as you suggest do trackdays there instead. As for timing well you can on td's as long as you don't shout about it. As they leave there transmitter on most of the time.

BEMSEE I believe the friday practice day is £100* and gives you a lot of sessions of 15 minutes each.

Generally the classes are more grouped than the races are to fit in more sessions.

That £100 is obviously on top of race entry fees, but I'm not sure if you have to have entered to take part - although it would make sense.
