European Trackday FAQs
Questions and Answers on No Limits Europeans events
1.How experienced are No Limits Trackdays?
No Limits has been running since 1993 and is now the UK’s largest and longest-running trackday company. We organise over 130 European and 160 UK events each year, including transport, accommodation, free instruction and of course, top-quality track time.
2. Who attends our European trackdays?
Around 95% of riders on our Euro trips are UK based — with the rest coming from all over the world to experience or events.
3. Who are DG Sport and how do those events differ?
We work with DG Sport for a few events each year (around 8). These are run by their team, but a No Limits rep will always be there to support our riders.
Just a heads up: DG events are timed, garages are chargeable, and no instruction or sighting laps are offered. They also use their own tyre service.
4. Can we setup the night before at track
We’ll always try to get early access where possible, but it depends on the circuit. Full details including setup times and sign-on info are sent out via Telegram about a week before.
5. What is Telegram and why do I need it?
Telegram is a secure app we use to keep everyone in the loop, it’s a one-way communication tool so you won’t get bombarded with spam. You’ll get a barcode to join around 8 weeks before departure, and we’ll use it to post updates like delays, sign-on info, and event changes.
6. What are stillages and what can I pack?
Stillages (those red double-bike crates) are used for all events with transport. Each rider gets space for 1 bike, plus gear like leathers, helmet, boots, tyre warmers, a small toolkit and kitbag.
No consumables or personal items (e.g. oils, laptops, etc.)
Need more space? Just contact the office for an extra half-stillage (additional charges apply).
We’ve got a video guide on our site under “Typical Euro Trackday” to help you pack correctly.
Please note: Customers are responsible for ensuring their bike is within the stillage, safely and securely strapped down and fully wrapped (clear wrap). Screens should also be removed.
7. Is there a benefit to ordering tyres through No Limits?
Absolutely. Order online or through the office and have them delivered direct to the circuit. You’ll get free fitting, and we’ll even dispose of your old rubber.
(Excludes DG Sport events – see point 17)
To order tyres or parts/accessories and even clothing please see our website www.shop.nolimitstrackdays.com
8. Do you use wristbands or tags?
We use colour-coded wristbands for group ID, each with a unique number. Health & safety rules mean they must stay on for the event duration. Tags and other ways to identify a rider haven’t passed our safety checks.
9. Is timing used during Euro events?
Yes – timing helps us safely manage groups. Riders are often moved to more suitable groups after the first day.
To protect your insurance, lap times aren’t made public (just ask at admin if you're curious). DG Sport events run their own timing and may move riders earlier.
10. What if I’ve booked the wrong group?
We’ll do our best to get you moved early, but if the event is full, you might have to sit out day one until timing runs.
11. What kind of insurance do I need?
We can't recommend a provider, but your policy must include repatriation and medical cover for private, non-competitive track use.
Providers used by customers include:
- AssuretonSport (formula 2) or formula 3
- Adventures (PJ Hayman)
- TDA Insurance (discounts for No Limits customers available)
- JS Insurance
- Allianz Assistance
- RBG (France, Spain and Portugal only)
Please note you will need to show your insurance (in printed version) at sign on. If you use a UK based insurer you will need to have cover from the date you left the UK to the date you return. You must have a printed copy of your insurance with you at the track.
12. Is my bike insured with you during transport?
Yes – we’ve got you covered! If your bike is in our care (during transit or locked overnight at the circuit), it’s fully insured at market value. We’re the only UK company offering this level of cover.
No Limits use stillages to protect the bike from damage, customers are responsible for loading and securing their bikes and the removing of screens is advised. If you bike is damaged in transit please report this immediately to the driver and administrator or to Mastermac on return.
13. Do you offer rider instruction?
Yes – we offer free instruction sessions with one of our trained instructors. Just speak to the admin team on arrival to book a slot (first come, first served).

30. What electrical adaptors will I need?
Most Euro garages will offer the Type E & F sockets, these are standard household plug types, so a normal Euro adaptor is sufficient.
