FAQs

Will I wear my tyres? - Whilst this largely depends from driver to driver, you should expect some minor tyre wear.

Can my friends and partners come out for passenger rides? Yes.

What happens if it rains? It will still run - you'll just be a lot more sideways, and we will be a lot more wet. MoT has a full marquee which will be erected for customers to keep out of the elements.

My cars stock! Is that no good? Not at all, you will learn more in a stock car than you will in a modified one, so no excuse there!

Are there noise limits? - We do run a self imposed noise limit of approximately 100dB. If we feel your car is exceptionally loud, we may ask you to either keep your revs down or fit a silencing bung. If the car cannot be silenced, then we may unfortunately have to end your day early.


Concirned about tyre wear?? - Don't worry.

Mint Tyres provide tyre services to all our car control events. They supply part worn tyres and even wheel hire at very reasonable rates so that your road tyres are not affected on the day. They can even fit new tyres for you to drive home on.

Please contact Steve directly at solutions@minttyres.com or clict the logo above.
