How to get into racing?

Im 15 years old, dont have a rich family. Im busy in the summer with cricket but want to start racing and could maybe fit both in. How do I start racing and what are the costs?

hi Adam, a bit more information about your location would probably be a good start - where are your nearest circuits?

Are we really going to do this again, or is it short term memory loss?

Hmm profile name has changed from adamLH back to Adam1312....ok I'm officially ignoring from now on....the guy obviously will never get not motorsport because he lacks the most Inportent skill.....to listen!

If you can't listen to a bunch of genuine people who have been giving you the same advice for around 18 months now, and evrytime come back and post another thread on how can I do this or how can I get sponsorship to race in a junior single seater category with zero racing experience, then how the hell do you think you would be able to listen to parents, engineers or mechanics or even your own team boss!

Do you want us to just tell you what you want to hear? Well in that case, yes it's easy as pie, people will throw millions of pounds at you and you will be Lewis hamiltons team mate next year! Happy?

I hate to be brutally honest kid, I've tried to be as soft as I can with reality, but seriously you need to wake up and smell the coffee, you are now 18 months older than you were before, other kids have 8 years more experience more than you, there is NO WAY you will get into f1, do what we suggested all that time ago, buckle down, work hard and pay for your racing like the rest of us

You start off by getting an MSA go racing pack and follow the instructions on there and then you throw pots and pots of money at it, in fact it'll be enough money to buy a decent house in your area.
