About this event

  • Event lasts 8 hours

Mission Motorsport, The Forces' Motorsport Charity is thrilled to be heading back to Croft Circuit, the home of motorsport in the north, for the annual Forces Family Track Day.

An Unforgettable Day!

In true Mission Motorsport style, you can enjoy thrilling, heart-racing passenger rides* around 2.1 miles of amazing track in a variety of cars ranging from Fiat Pandas to McLarens and everything in between!

For the younger petrol heads in your family, we'll be bringing Lightening McQueen, the split control for someone on the wheel and someone on the pedals. Our dual-control MX-5 will also be there, meaning those as young as 10 years old can get behind the wheel.

*Track passenger rides for those over 18 years old

Family fun away from the track

For all family members and those who'd prefer not to go out on track, we've got that covered too! The popular and ever-growing "Families Village" will be back and we're thrilled to be joined by other charitable organisations, local reserve units, local veteran-owned businesses, static car displays and other stall holders. There'll be plenty of fun to be had with a range of activities suitable for all ages.
