RENAULTSPORT ANNOUNCES 2012 TRACKDAY CALENDAR
Renaultsport enthusiasts are invited to sharpen up their driving skills by booking on to one of this year’s exclusive trackday events at world famous circuits like Silverstone and Brand Hatch.
The popular events give participants the opportunity to drive their own award-winning Renaultsport machine on a race track and receive expert tuition with the emphasis on improving driving technique.
These trackdays are the ultimate for all Renaultsport enthusiasts, with professional instructors on-hand to listen to your views and questions and share their tips, plus they can get the most out of their high-performance car without the fear of speed cameras and traffic jams.
Speaking about the popularity of the trackdays, Thierry Sybord, Renault UK’s Managing Director said: “Our trackdays are the ideal way of letting our customers share our passion for Renaultsport, as well as giving them the opportunity to realise the full potential of their cars in a safe and relaxed atmosphere. The tuition provides invaluable experience to improving skill levels.”
The season-opening event in April at Spa-Francorchamps was a sell-out, so owners should move fast to guarantee their place on the UK trackday dates for 2012:
- 4 May Evening trackday at Bedford Autodrome (£95)
- 10 May Trackday at Silverstone (£199)
- 23 August Trackday at Oulton Park (£199)
- 31 August Evening trackday at Bedford Autodrome (£95)
- 4 October Trackday at Brands Hatch (£189)
At each event, owners will be able to try the latest Renaultsport models with the new Twingo Renaultsport 133, Clio Renaultsport 200 Cup and Mégane Renaultsport 265 Cup. At Silverstone, you can even hire a Clio or Mégane Renaultsport to use on track.
Prices for the trackdays, which have been running for 10 years, are subsidised by Renault UK to help participants to improve their driving skills, and additional instruction on each of the days can be purchased for just £10. First time and experienced trackday drivers are all welcome at each of the prestigious venues.
Trackdays make the perfect gift for Renaultsport enthusiasts and vouchers can be bought to make the occasion even more special, while second drivers go free at each of the events.
The Renaultsport Heritage Collection display will be rolling to each of the venues and a photographer will be on site to offer all the drivers free pictures after putting their hot hatch through its paces on the circuit.
