About the Event
Whatever your level of hill climb experience, the Prescott Hill Climb school will give you a great day out! Our instructors are all highly experienced and competent competitors and are qualified to pass on the knowledge of the sport to you.
You can also upgrade your MS-UK Interclub licence (the old National B) to a National licence (the old National A). This requires you to 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 your upgrade.
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 Prescott’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. If you have overalls and gloves please do use them if you have them, as this adds to the experience. But, they are not compulsory.
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 meet the current MS-UK eligibility specifications.
There are prizes for the 'Driver of the Day' and 'Most Improved Driver' so the competition starts from the get go!
