Our motoring club, the Jaguar Enthusiasts' Club, run both track days and full race meetings. At the track days, people are encouraged to bring their road cars along to have fun, but race cars are also encouraged to attend to do a bit of testing (in separate sessions of course). Usually ARDS courses are also run for the "trainee" race drivers. This gets people who are thinking of going racing together with drivers at all levels and can often get a trip round the track in one of the race cars. All in all its a great system for recruiting new drivers and has been very successful for our club.
