Circuit Days

A car track day and road tour organiser, founded in 2004 by Chris Hoey, the company organises events throughout the world.

Circuit Days Track Days

Run in accordance to AMRCO (Association of Motor Racing Circuit Owners) and ATDO (Association of Track Day Organisers) guidelines, Circuit Days track day events have gained a positive reputation over the past 16 years. Endeavouring to organise events with a high driving standard but in a relaxed atmosphere, they do not run a regimented style of discipline and all cars are welcome.

All CD staff drive their own cars on all the events, both to actively monitor driving standards and to enjoy driving the circuit – at the end of the day we are all petrolheads that love to drive in a relaxed and, above all, safe environment.

Circuit Days Road Tours

Circuit Days road tours started out when Chris and a few friends decided to drive to the Nurburgring in 2004. Following a superb 12 car trip, it was decided that a similar event, along with a trip to the Alps, be put on the Circuit Days website for 2005. The Nurburgring 700 and Alpine Adventure were thus born. Over 50 road tours have been successfully organised and completed by Circuit Days since, with up to 80 cars participating in some instances.
