Track Safety and Driving License —
Everything You Need to Know

The short answer: a regular, valid civilian driving license is completely enough. You don't need a performance driving license, you don't need special certification, and you don't need any prior track experience. The reason is simple: every guided driving experience runs with a certified instructor from the Performance Driving Authority sitting in the car beside you, briefing you beforehand and guiding you through the entire drive — the responsibility and the expertise sit with them, not only with you.

A performance driving license is only required for people who want to compete in official motorsport events or drive unsupervised in competitive settings. A guided driving experience — like the one EXR Racing offers — is a completely different category: a guided, controlled activity, not a competition, so the only license requirement for it is a regular civilian license.

Only the person who's actually driving. A passenger who joins a couples' or family experience without sitting behind the wheel doesn't need a license at all, just a good mood. Only the driver is required to present a valid driving license at the start of the experience.

Three fixed components in every experience: a professional safety briefingbefore you get in the car, explaining the activity's rules and the structure of the driving sessions; a certified instructorwho sits in the car for the entire drive, guiding entry lines and matching the pace to the driver's level; and physical infrastructure — at the Arad race track that's a built track with 14 corners, safe run-off areas, and an official pit lane; in Nes Harim it's a familiar mountain road with close guidance for the whole drive.

Yes — every EXR Racing driving experience includes full insurancefor the activity. The team walks you through the coverage details in the briefing before you drive, so you know exactly what's covered before the car even moves. In our view, full transparency here isn't a bonus — it's a baseline requirement for a serious operator, as detailed in our guide on how to choose a driving experience company.

The exact age requirements are checked and confirmed with the team at the booking stage, depending on the car and the format of the experience. We prefer to give you a precise answer in a personal conversation — with the participant's specific age — instead of quoting a blanket number that might not fit every case. Reach out on WhatsApp with the details and you'll get a clear confirmation before booking.

A professional operator defines in advance what happens in extreme weather conditions — not improvising a policy in the moment. With us, if conditions aren't safe, an alternative date is arranged with the team on WhatsApp. One structural advantage worth knowing: the Arad race track, in a desert region, generally sees very few rainy days, so weather-related postponements are relatively rare to begin with.

The structure is the same for everyone — briefing, an instructor in the car, insurance — but the paceis personalized. A certified instructor can tell exactly how far a beginner is ready to progress in each session, and won't push beyond that.
