Expert Care
It is the responsibility of the vehicle owner to ensure that their vehicle is in good repair with maintenance suitable for track use. Area 27 staff may from time to time request an inspection of the vehicle to insure suitability for track use. If a vehicle is found not to be suitable for track use, it is the responsibility of the owner, or proxy, to facilitate the approved vehicle modifications or repairs in order to reinsure track use suitability.
We will have an experienced Technician on site to be able to offer his support but he will have limited access to tools, so we do encourage before the event that all drivers have their vehicles checked out to ensure they are in tip-top shape.
You can book ahead of time through our online booking program at Schedule Service. Please make note during the booking that this is for the Track Day and we will assign our Lead Technician and Shop Foreman to your vehicle to check it over.
