About The Event

Whatever your level of speed eventing experience, the school will give you a great day out! Our instructors are all highly experienced competitors and know how to enjoy their sport. Let us pass some of that enjoyment on to you!

We will talk you through starting in competition before a briefing on driving the Hill. Then we will take you on to the track. You won’t be confined to the classroom for long, we devote most of the time to driving and instructing.

We also offer a licence upgrade option – you attend the school for a day’s course and sit a short multiple choice examination. Successful completion of the exam and driving will gain you one signature towards upgrading a National B Licence to a National A status. Only one of your upgrade signatures may be obtained from an AHASS approved school.

Even if you are not YET committed to taking up this wonderful sport, you can come to the school, take part in the activities and have a terrific day experiencing competitive driving on Shelsley Walsh’s challenging course. We have a feeling it won’t be the last time you do so!

All you need to do is bring your own road legal car and wear clothing that covers your arms and legs. Do use overalls and gloves if you have them, but they are not compulsory for the driving school.

Crash helmets are required but will be provided free of charge to those who do not have their own. If you choose to bring your own helmet, it must be to the current MSA specifications.

The cost is just £210 (which includes breakfast, lunch, afternoon tea and refreshments throughout the day), plus an extra £50 if you require the licence upgrade option. MAC members can claim a £20 discount per driving school. Guests are welcome at a cost of £30 to cover food and refreshments throughout the day.

Those who have entered a driving school are also eligible to have a guaranteed acceptance of a Shelsley Walsh Hill Climb entry. You must nominate which event you would like to use this for. This offer is subject to minimum licence requirements being met and a completed hill climb entry form and fee received by the closing date for that meeting.

The winner for the day at each school will win a free competitive entry to a MAC event (either at Shelsley Walsh Hill Climb, or one of our Sprint venues). The Most Improved and Best Novice at each school will win a £20 voucher for entries.
