Consider other drivers - leave plenty of space when you overtake other cars
OVERTAKING is on the LEFT ONLY
Use your mirrors regularly and if you see faster traffic behind you, move over to the right and let the other vehicle(s) pass on the left

Declaration & Indemnity

I confirm that:

1. I am familiar with the nature of the activity I wish to undertake and accept that, despite Circuit Days Ltd taking all reasonable precautions, damage or injury may occur. I accept this and take part in the activity at my own risk.

2. I am competent to take part, I am not taking any drugs (whether prescribed or otherwise) that may impair my ability to take part and I do not suffer from, and have no history of, any medical condition that could affect my ability to take part in this event.

3. I will satisfy myself (by sighting lap or otherwise) that the track is acceptable to me with regard to its features and physical layout.

4. I will comply with all information and instructions provided to me in relation to the activity given by any representative of Circuit Days Ltd at all times. In the interests of safety, I may be excluded from further participation in the activity if it is considered that for any reason my driving is below a level deemed acceptable. I am aware that other participants will be on the track at the same time as me.

5. I hold a full valid road driving licence (drivers only) appropriate for any car that I drive on circuit. I will bring my licence to the activity and make it available for inspection on demand.

6. If I'm a junior driver I hold a competition licence, I will only drive the car I'm currently racing in and I will have an ARDS instructor (minimum grade A) in the car with me at all times whilst on track.

7. I will satisfy myself that any car I intend to drive in the activity is fit to use, safe, and roadworthy. Any in-car camera or other equipment is safely and securely attached, using mounting systems specifically designed for that purpose. The use of my car is entirely at my own risk and I accept responsibility for any damage to my car however caused (whether caused by me or anyone else driving it or caused by another participant). I understand the availability of track day insurance and will decide whether to take out such cover at my discretion.

8. I understand I will be liable for any damage caused at the venue, including any damages to the circuit infrastructure (Armco barriers, barrier posts, pit garages, etc), and shall pay to Circuit Days Ltd an amount equal to the cost of any resulting repair or replacement. All necessary on and off circuit clean up costs may also be chargeable.

9. I shall wear seat belts or harnesses at all times whilst in a vehicle, and a properly fastened crash helmet at all times whilst on the circuit.

10. I understand neither Circuit Days Ltd nor any other company or organisation connected with the event (or any of their respective employees or officers), any instructors or other participants (each a “Relevant Person”) shall be liable for any injury, loss, damage, claims, costs, expenses, or demands suffered directly or indirectly by me as a consequence of my attendance at or participation in this activity. This does not exclude any Relevant Person’s liability for personal injury or death caused by its negligence.

12. I understand racing, timing or any type of competition, including top speed attempts, is prohibited and that the purpose of the day is to allow participants to improve their skills and learn the basic handling and braking characteristics of the cars which they are using.

13. I understand any insurance carried by Circuit Days Ltd/the circuit owners/the event location operator in respect of any liability which might arise out of the track day will be limited, and that my own motor, third party and public liability insurance (if any) is unlikely to cover me for my losses, liabilities or personal injury.

15. I agree to make no claim against Circuit Days Ltd/the circuit owners/the event location operator in respect of any loss or injury suffered by me during the track day and to indemnify them against their costs and losses arising out of any claim made against them by anyone to the extent that such costs and losses are attributable directly or indirectly to my participation in the track day.

16. I have read and agree with the above Declaration and Indemnity and agree that its terms will also apply to my participation in any future track day organised by Circuit Days Ltd unless I sign a subsequent Declaration and Indemnity which will then take precedence.
