Pistenclub e.V.

Your no. 1 in Europe for automotive trackdays

Welcome to the Pistenclub! Have you ever dreamt of driving your car on a racetrack? We offer every interested person the opportunity to set wheels on the most beautiful courses in Europe. No matter whether you are a beginner or a professional driver, no matter whether you possess a common sporty car, a sports car or a racing car, we offer free riding for everyone. This is possible even without membership, experience or a racing license – a driving license and the fun of driving are fully sufficient!

With our trackdays, you can enjoy a free driver’s training on a real racing circuit. Our events have always focused on the fun of driving and the improvement of your personal driving skills. Therefore, our events do not have competitive character, nor is there any time measurement. If you are unsure, our experienced instructors are available on almost every trackday.
