Question

What is the format for the day?

Answer

The format for the day is - we run four classes as a rotation.

Race bikes - anything goes.

Fast road bikes – no speed limits, common sense must apply.

Medium road bikes – this is led at 180kms on the straights (no passing the lead bike) and when overtaking other bikes give them some room, no carving up in the corners.

Novice road bikes - this is led at 120kms on the straights (no passing the lead bike) and when overtaking other bikes give them some room. No passing in the corners.

Question

Is the track day that you’re running at Manfeild in January suitable for learner riders on 250cc machines?

Answer

Yes, please bring your 150, we have novice classes that are led at about 120 kms on the straights by good track riders, this will suit learners to medium riders and is very safe (we have had 110cc bike go fine in this class). We also have medium classes that are led at about 180kms, so if you find a class is too fast or slow, come and see us and we will shift you into another class.

Question

I am keen to do the track day, but was wondering if you could clarify something for me.  Your website says that the bike has to be WOF safety standard, does that mean you have to have a bike that has a current WOF?
 
The reason I ask is because I have a track day bike that is obviously not road legal.
 
If you could please confirm for me what bikes are permitted at your track days that would be great.

Answer

No, your bike does not need a WOF but needs to be safe, e.g. tyres with some tread, a chain that won't fall off, brakes that work, and good wheel bearings, throttle that returns on its own, etc. We have no interest in headlights, indicators, mirrors or whether it's registered.

Please note we will be opening scrutineering from 8:00 am
