Donington Opens Soon

The new season begins! Our first two events of the year are both at Donington Park, National circuit.

Our club Test Day, on Wednesday 25th February will open for entries this Friday (9th) at midday. Those of you with up-to-date membership will be able to book online, all others can print and scan/photograph our pdf.

Donington Derby Race Weekend, on 28/29th March, will open for entries in the last week of January, to give you all more time to re-register for the season. We will send you a countdown email nearer the time. https://www.classicsportscarclub.co.uk/join-the-cscc

Test Day Overview

More details and a timetable will follow on Friday, but in brief, this is a friendly test day (not track day), for 2026 race licence holders to blow away the cobwebs in their race cars. No scrutineering needed, no noise test (drive-by limit of 98dB), no briefing, just turn up, show your 2026 race licence, collect a wristband and you're off.

Cars/drivers are split into three groups based on likely speed or ability, with each group receiving 4 x 30 minute sessions and (if light/conditions allow) a further hour of open pitlane at the end. So, potentially up to 3 hours of track time including clear-up for £255. Garages are available at £60 each, you can share (sub-let) one space to a friend, to fit in a maximum of two cars per garage if you wish, provided they don't block the pits or fire lane.

There is no charge for a second driver, provided they are sharing the same car and same group. No passengers are permitted, except ARDS A and S grade instructors.

All places are on a first-come-first-served basis.

Our Chief Scrutineer, Tony Harman, together with colleagues, will be on hand to check your car and kit, should you wish. Tony will also be with us at Spa, so it's the perfect time to ask him questions.

Adams & Page are there to take care of your tyre needs, whilst Advantage Motorsport can service many brands of extinguisher.

Claire, Hannah and David will be on hand to welcome you at the circuit.
