Looking to become a passenger

Unread post by Scrim501 »

Hi I’m looking to get into sidecar racing as a passenger and I’m looking for any help and advice. I come from a history of Karting and the last 15years racing hare and hounds and enduro, but being a passenger has always been of interest to me and I’m eager to take the plunge just not sure where to begin.

Thanks in advance
Nick

When you do get your licence, Ian Champ is in desperate need of a permanent passenger on his front-exit classic, see his posts in "Passengers Wanted" on this forum.

Hi it might be worth letting people know where your based /able to travel etc
Once you get your licence try going to a bemsee practice day on a Friday there will be people to chat to and willing to take you out for a practice session
