Say hello to the most powerful, fastest accelerating, front-wheel-drive car we’ve ever had the pleasure of at Knockhill. The Type R responds instantly to the driver, no hesitation. Underneath the sculpted bonnet lies a four-cylinder VTEC TURBO engine. It’s no surprise to discover this gives the Type R the ability to sprint from 0-62 mph in 5.8 seconds and achieve 169 mph top speed. Powering the Type R through the dramatic undulations of our famous racing circuit is exhilarating.

The Knockhill Track

Knockhill Racing Circuit is a thrilling 1.27-mile track, renowned for its adrenaline-pumping twists, turns, and dramatic 200-foot elevation changes. As Scotland's only FIA-graded circuit, it accommodates both car and bike racing in both directions, offering a truly unique motorsport experience. The challenging layout features tight corners, steep climbs, and technical descents, delivering an exhilarating ride for drivers and riders alike.

Knockhill has a rich history in British motorsport, hosting prestigious events like the British Touring Car Championship (BTCC) and British Superbikes (BSB). Its reputation for being both challenging and rewarding makes it a favorite among racers.

Spectators enjoy panoramic views of the action, thanks to the track’s natural elevation. Whether you're behind the wheel or watching from the stands, Knockhill promises an unforgettable motorsport experience!

From the couple here last week: Everything went really well. We were insanely lucky to have Graham for our testing day. He was a spectacular instructor and we hope we can come back for more training from him next time we are in the UK! Thanks for all the wonderful help and for putting up with my endless questions. I’m pretty sure Atle enjoyed his time there and I know I did! I don’t think it’s quite sunk in yet that we managed to scrape a pass! You can tell Graham that they marked him at 95-98% on all the supercars we dumped him in at Thruxton after his instruction with you all! :) Thanks again and hopefully see you next time we are up! :)

First Time Race Goer - Had a blast!! Attended the Superbike racing on Sunday. I have never been to a race circuit and did not know what to expect. Pleasantly surprised by the facilities and the circuit itself. Food was very good, trade stands also great. The racing was thrilling. I did learn somethings as a first timer. Make sure you wear sunscreen (you sit outside most of the day) and top it up through the day. If you want a comfortable seat bring one with you, lots of places to put your own chair some under cover, there is seating at the circuit but it is not comfortable for long periods. Don't forget to drink plenty of water, it is very easy to get caught up in the action and forget! This was a great experience for my first time attending a race circuit would definitely recommend.

Great week end here. Bike racing was very good with good spectator points. Toilet etc facilities were very good and kept clean all through the day. Eating places very good and staff excellent. In the bar only thing is there were 5 taps of same lager. An ale would be good on draught i.e. Best as not everyone drinks lager. Apart from that great.

Had a great experience driving my own car on the circuit. My instructor James was great. He was really knowledgeable and explained car control to me really clearly and ultimately showed me how to get the most from my car on the day. Would absolutely recommend any track experience at Knockhill.

Not a competitive racer, just went karting for fun as an 18 year old and it was a great experience. You wear a full suit and all, the track is fun, the karts handle well, and everyone drove responsibly. The marshals kept it safe while also not slowing it down too much. I’d highly recommend.
