Grass Autotest

Farnborough District Motor Club provide a Grass Autotest

It’s your opportunity to have a go at Clubman level motorsport in your own car.

Autotesting offers an easy start in the sport. You can compete in your everyday road car and require no previous knowledge, training, special safety equipment or even a Competition Licence. Entry fees for these types of event are affordable to all, from £35 for an event that can take all day.

The events are on either tarmac or grass with the course laid out with cones. Competitors follow a set route that involves manoeuvring mostly forward and maybe some element of reverse. A diagram of the course is provided so you don’t get too lost! In the case of a Production Car Autotest, you event get to carry a passenger with you to act as navigator.

The test is timed with the quickest time wining. If a driver hits a cone or takes the wrong route, they pick up a 10 second penalty for every mistake. Both accuracy and speed are the name of the game.

If you’d like a gentler introduction to Auto Testing, they’ll be passenger rides in one of our cars, so you can find out how it feels from inside the car.

  • The Taster Autotest costs £15 for 4 goes at the test. ANY CONDITIONS.
  • Passenger rides will be £5 for 2 laps of the course. Subject to 12 yrs old and 1.35m in height.

Proceeds donated to Shere Hill Climb Charity.
