From car enthusiast to racer in Thailand - Where do you start?

Featured Replies

Many people love cars, but not everyone gets the chance to drive on a real circuit. Track days are designed for beginners and enthusiasts who want to experience racing in a safe environment with instructors on hand. It's not about who fastest-it's about learning, enjoying and meeting like-minded people who share the same passion for speed

 

Have you ever joined a Track Day, or are you curious to try one?

I used to do motorcycle track days on Mondays at Bira. Motorcycles in the morning, cars in the afternoon. 

 

So the first place to start would be at the track. The two nearest ones are:

 

-Bira near Pattaya. participant entrance https://maps.app.goo.gl/i9R2Ln9w5Y4pKkv99

-Kaeng Krachan Circuit

 

Just talk to anyone there. If no one there, you can always visit the office. I have never been to Kaeng Kachang. Bira is nearer to Bangkok.

 

 

 

They were talking about closing BIRA race track  obviously it was reprieved ?

Well I suppose they could build a Moobahn there? Or is it Mubahn? I can never tell.

There's the newly opened TopKart track in central Bangkok.... it looks like fun from the videos, but I've not tried it yet.

With all the nerf bars on the side of the Karts it looks like fairground dodgems.  Just the job for a late braking Verstappen wannabe to force the guy in front off the track.

I'd only do the 11am session for sure.
