These Terms and Conditions apply to all bookings of any events of our Experiences placed by our clients. These Terms and Conditions replace any of our earlier terms and conditions in relation to our Experiences and no variation to these Terms and Conditions shall be binding unless agreed by The Racing School in writing. By booking with The Racing School, you agree on behalf of yourself and if not yourself, the driver to be bound by them in their entirety. The Racing School cannot confirm any booking until we have received full payment or a voucher where applicable.
Price and Payment
The price of a booking will be the price stated on the Price List. Any subsequent variation in the Price agreed by The Racing School will only be valid if confirmed in writing to you. Payment of the stipulated price will allow you to reserve a place (if one is available) on one of the event days operated by The Racing School. We will be under no obligation to run any Experience or to reserve any available date selected by you for an Experience, unless or until the Price has been paid in full. Until such time, we may freely offer the available date selected by you for an Experience to any other party. Payment may be made by cheque, postal order, cash, credit card or debit card.
Gift Vouchers
Gift vouchers purchased towards the Price of any Experience are valid for 12 months from the date of purchase, unless stated otherwise. Any Experience purchased using gift vouchers must be booked to take place within such period of validity, extensions are unavailable. Any gift vouchers requested by you to be delivered will be subject to an additional charge. We will not be liable for the non-delivery of any gift vouchers.

Cancellation and Refunds
No refunds of the Price will be payable by The Racing School in the event you cancel any Experience you have booked or the Driver fails to attend the Experience. Once a booking has been confirmed any amendments to the date or time may only be made up to 14 days before the booked date and will subject to an administration fee of £25.
For the Formula 1 experience, we require 21 days notice for any amendments and this is subject to an administration fee of £250.00.
We reserve the right to cancel an Experience due to adverse weather conditions that may affect your safety. We cannot be held liable for any costs incurred in this circumstance. You will be entitled to book a replacement date no more than three months after the cancelled Experience. We reserve the right to postpone an experience previously booked and to offer an alternative booking. Booking Conditions
You agree on behalf of yourself and the Driver to observe all circuit rules and regulations and all instructions given by The Racing School including our instructors.
You agree on behalf of yourself and the Driver to observe and comply with any advice, instruction, request or decision made by us whether on the grounds of the safety of the Driver or any other person or for any other reason at all. You agree on behalf of yourself and the Driver that our opinion on all matters regarding safety will be final. You agree on behalf of yourself and the Driver that any Driver acting in a manner which in our opinion is dangerous, or may interfere with or disrupt the Experience will at our sole discretion and without further liability to us immediately have their Experience terminated without refund.
You must notify us as soon as possible if the Driver is unable to attend the Experience. If you wish to send a replacement driver to take the reserved driving activity, we can accept substitutes up to the time of registration, providing they comply with all necessary criteria.
Where the Experience includes any circuit activity of any kind whatsoever, the Driver needs to have held a full valid driving licence for a minimum of 12 months. Licences must be produced on the day of the activity in order to participate. The Driver must not have consumed any alcohol or banned substance prior to the Experience and we will be entitled at the time for any Experience to prevent a Driver from driving who in our opinion may have consumed alcohol or a banned substance beforehand.
No Driver will be allowed to take part in any Experience unless they have attended the full safety briefing preceding the Experience. Where an activity requires the wearing of a crash helmet, this is mandatory and there is no exception. |
Liability
It is a condition of this Agreement that in order for a Driver to take part in an Experience the Driver must be in a fit medical condition to participate in it and must sign our disclaimer of liability agreement prior to its commencement. Please note that some medical conditions preclude certain drivers from taking part in an experience; please check with your GP prior to booking your activity. Any Driver failing to sign our disclaimer of liability agreement will not be permitted to take part in any Experience. You are liable for ensuring all Drivers are sufficiently capable of understanding instructions given to them in the English Language on safety or whilst driving and we will not be liable in any way for any consequences arising from your failure to do so. You are liable for your family or any Drivers family attending an Experience and for their safety. Any provisions in these Terms and Conditions applying to the conduct of the Driver apply equally to any such friends or family. Pets or animals are forbidden anywhere on the circuit (except Guide Dogs). We will not be liable for any event or occurrence outside our control which results in cancellation and/or modification of any Experience from that booked by you or advertised by The Racing School. We have Public Liability insurance cover up to a limit of £50,000,000 for any one event and unlimited aggregate cover in any period for all events. The Racing School excess for all damage claims is £2000. A driver may be liable to pay up to this amount for any damage caused whilst they are driving. The Racing School offers an optional ‘Damage Indemnity’ at an additional cost of £20, which can either be paid prior to taking part in the experience or on the day itself. To have this cover means that as long as the driver is not acting recklessly and following the directions of the instructor they will not be liable for this amount. The Damage Indemnity applies to all activities except the ‘First Drive Experience’ and all passenger rides.
Experience Timings and Descriptions
Drivers should arrive at the circuit at least 30 minutes prior to their Experience start time. We cannot permit anyone to participate in an activity without attending the preceding drivers briefing, so it is essential you arrive on time.
Experience timings and descriptions stated by our staff, agents or in our printed materials are approximate and should only be used as a guide. The Experience booked may involve some waiting time. We reserve the right at our sole discretion to alter or amend the content and/or vehicle of any Experience without notice. All Experiences are offered subject to availability. |
