Recommended & trusted
Trusted partners
The suppliers, operators and services we recommend to drivers — for a first track day, a full season of club racing, or a trip across the Channel. Independent picks — nothing buys a place on this page.
Track day & race insurance
On-track damage cover for track days, test days and race weekends — road policies almost never cover you once you pass the pit gate. European cover needs declaring separately.
- UK & Europe
Reis Motorsport Insurance
Track day and competition on-track cover, including European events and transporter policies.
- UK & Europe
Moris Motorsport Insurance
Track day damage cover, race car storage and transit policies for UK and European meetings.
Driver coaching & instruction
In-car coaching, data analysis and race craft. The fastest way to find time is usually someone in the passenger seat, not another set of tyres.
Licensing & ARDS
Motorsport UK membership, ARDS tests and race licence medicals — the route from track days to a competition licence.
- UK
Motorsport UK
The UK governing body: membership, RS Clubman and National race licences, ARDS test booking and the medical requirements that go with them.

Circuit ARDS schools
ARDS tests run at most UK circuits — combining the test with a familiarisation session at the circuit you plan to race at is usually money well spent.

- UK & Europe
Demon Tweeks
Track tyres, brake pads and fluid, race wear and safety equipment with delivery across Europe.
