TT Assen

Post by Undutched »

Hi,

does anyone know, if they have any tourist days?
I live 20km from the track, but everyone is telling me, the track is never open to the public, except for real track days, which cost along the lines of 300euros.

not entirely true, the track is also open on certain other days, when events are held...

but I'm not sure which ones exactly (and if it's a free drive or not)

some costs... well... nothing will ever be free if it's cars and Holland :(

What do you understand by a tourist day?
That the track is open for the public to go and drive on it? for free?
Don't see that happenin any time soon.

There are trackdays wich cost about 180-200euros.

Or you have those special events, where you can drive for 30 min for 25 euro's or something like that, but usually those rounds are not recommended as you have different level of drivers racing in the same round, which can be dangerous.

Tourist means, that you can either drive like 30 minutes for 20 euros, or 10euro a lap, etc.
you still have rules and regulations of the road, as in no passing on the right, etc. Gotta have mirrors, a street legal car and so on.
track days, is when they like offer mechanics, jacks, etc. you need to wear helmet, etc. etc.
