Welcome to the hub where car lovers and track fans meet. Whether you’re asking if you can fill up with racing fuel every day or hunting for the next local race, you’ll find straight‑forward answers and fresh updates right here.
Bath’s track calendar is packed this summer. From weekend sprint races at the city circuit to night‑time drift events, there’s always something roaring nearby. We break down the dates, ticket prices and what you can expect on the grandstand so you don’t miss a lap.
One of the most common queries we get is: “Can I use racing fuel in my car on a daily basis?” The short answer is no – regular road engines aren’t built for the high‑octane blend that race cars sip. Racing fuel can raise combustion temperatures, wear out seals faster and even void your warranty. If you’re after a performance boost, a higher‑octane pump‑grade that meets your manufacturer’s spec is safer and more practical.
That said, a few enthusiasts experiment with small amounts for short test drives. If you ever try it, keep the distance under ten miles, monitor engine temperature, and be ready to switch back to normal fuel. Most drivers find the extra cost isn’t worth the minimal gain, especially when regular fuel already meets the required octane level for most street cars.
We also dive into the chemistry behind racing fuel – it’s basically gasoline with added aromatics and a higher research octane number. Those additives help prevent knocking in high‑compression engines, something a typical family sedan simply doesn’t need.
Beyond fuel talk, our page covers practical car care tips. From checking tire pressure before a track day to choosing the right brake pads for street‑legal performance, we keep the advice simple and actionable.
