Track
days with MGs on Track (MGoT). It's a specialist branch of the
MG Car Club wich aims to organise fun, sociable track days where MG
enthusiasts can enjoy their cars in safety, with fellow enthusiasts
and at the best possible price. Our events are non-competitive, there
is no need to modify your car and there is no expensive equipment
required. All you will need is a helmet and that can be hired from
MGoT. Their events
are run for enthusiasts, by enthusiasts, and entirely on a voluntary
basis. More See track day calendar for 2023 Nigel Silman 07952 350761 Website |
