Novice & Casual Track Experience Day

The Friendly Faces Car Club Presents

NOVICE & CASUAL DAY 2027

Following on from a hugely successful Novice day in 2027, this is now going to be our launch event for 2027 and it is aimed at everybody who has promised themselves to get out on track, but wants to do it in a relaxed and easygoing environment.

Wanted to see what track driving is all about, but unsure where to start? Nervous about sharing the track with highly experienced drivers?
THIS is the day for you! A whole day dedicated to first time, or relatively inexperienced drivers or simply those who want to bring a car out on track without feeling the need to "push" it.

What qualifies you as a "Novice"? Simple - if you feel like one, that's it! Perhaps you've done a track day years ago, tried a "Supercar experience day" that left you wanting more, or simply want to test out your new car's performance in a suitable environment - this is it!

This event is also open to non-novices who wish to experience a more relaxed track event.

This event takes place at Blyton Park in Lincolnshire, an excellent and beginner friendly track with plenty of visibility, good run off and enough to challenge you once you feel a bit braver. It is a 1.5 mile track, not to be confused with airfield setups - those are typically made from a series of cones, can be tough to navigate and are very hard on tyres - not so here!

We will be running this using our usual low numbers format, with a maximum of just 36 cars in the paddock and no more than EIGHT on track at a time for this special event. The idea here is to give the space to build your confidence, in yourself and the car while still enjoying yourself.

The key aim of our events is FUN. We encourage people to give passenger rides and get to know each other. The event for most starts the night before, when we host a meal at a local pub and socialise - because for us that's really what a track day is all about - making friends through cars.

Our novice day is going to include many of the features that have made our track events so popular - including:

FREE TUITION - Every one of our events features at least one track tutor to help coach your driving, and for this event we will have two or three on hand so that everybody will get the chance to go out with them and help build their confidence.
EXOTIC AND SUPERCAR RIDES - We will have a couple of high performance, exotic cars on the event to give passenger rides - experience the thrill of a 500+hp car, with no speed limit! These will be available to everybody signing on the event.
SOUVENIR PHOTOGRAPHS - AT NO EXTRA COST! No upsells here, we will have our experienced photographer on hand all day taking photographs, to make sure you've got a memory to take home with you.
SIM RIG CHALLENGE - Fancy going head to head and trying a race? Enter the virtual world with our partners at Forrest Motorsport and see who can set the hottest lap of the day.
CHRISTMAS GIFT PACKAGES - Thinking of buying this for a loved one? We can create a custom gift letter, photograph or even custom video with our own JayEmm on cars to give to somebody for Christmas day.

If you haven't got a car to take on track, why not rent one of ours? We have two available - both of which are suitable for new drivers and will be setup specifically for novice drivers on this event. To find out more, email us on info@friendlyfacescarclub.com
