The entry level series turning trackday fans into GT champions
Low-cost. Easily accessible. And the perfect route for trackday drivers into competitive motorsport. It’s easy to see why Super Lap Scotland’s time-trial format is proving popular and encouraging new people to try it for themselves
It’s an age-old question asked by event organisers: how to get more people involved in motorsport? One logical group to target as potential future competitors is trackday drivers – after all, these are people who are already showing an interest in cars and visiting a circuit.
In 2013, the Knockhill Motor Sports Club recognised this and has aimed to reduce the gap between trackdays and racing north of the border via its Super Lap Scotland series.
