Default Knockhill Trackday

I'm off to Knockhill in March for to get this year's trackday season started, can anyone tell me if they allow children on track as passengers??

My boy is 9, and caught the bug after coming on my last Nurburgring trip in August, so really want him to come and experience the madness of the 'hill....



Secondly, I'll be in the market for a child's helmet, does anyone have any advice regarding the purchase, anything to look out for, or even an old (un-dropped) one that they would exchange for some green paper with the queens head on?




Cheers chaps,

think it's not so much age restriction as long as they have the height to fit secure in seatbelt/harness,knockhill have helmets to use as well

Think its the 23rd March (sunday) that I'm going, on the reverse circuit 'groups' day.

He fits fine in the seat/seatbelt and will have a lid on so hopefully should all be ok then

Don't think there's an age limit as such now.. more the fact you have to sign a disclosure..
