Elvington Airfield near York, 20 miles east, provides a runway-based venue that welcomes all experience levels from first-timers to seasoned performance drivers. Our McLaren 720S, Ferrari 488 Spider, Lamborghini Aventador SVJ, and Porsche 911 GT3 RS are available for delivery to all three venues from Harrogate, with pre-track vehicle briefing included.

McLaren 720S

525 hp naturally aspirated 4-litre flat-six, rear-wheel drive, PDK transmission, active rear-wing aerodynamics. The GT3 RS is what Porsche builds when the road is incidental. At Harewood's technical corners or Croft's fast sweepers, its carbon-ceramic brakes and adaptive chassis reward every degree of commitment from the first lap to the last.

Lamborghini Huracan Performante

640 hp naturally aspirated V10, ALA active aerodynamics, rear-wheel drive. The Huracan Performante set a Nürburgring production car lap record in its era. At Elvington's straight it produces one of the great supercar sound experiences. On a technical circuit like Harewood, its balance and mid-corner composure reward every progression in confidence.

McLaren 720S

710 hp twin-turbo V8, 0–62 in 2.9 seconds, carbon MonoCell II chassis.

You get behind the wheel of a genuine supercar — GT3 RS, Huracan Performante, or 720S — at a real North Yorkshire circuit and drive it properly, progressively, on your own terms from the very first session.

Track Day Venues Near Harrogate

Three world-class motorsport venues within 30 miles of Harrogate — from the UK's longest hillclimb to championship racing circuits and airfield performance days.

Harewood Hill Climb

Ten miles south of Harrogate on the A61, Harewood Hill Climb is the longest speed hillclimb in the UK — 1,440 metres of tarmac rising through the Harewood Estate, with cars reaching speeds of over 100 mph on the upper sections. Managed by the Harrogate Motor Club, the hillclimb runs regular events throughout the season for both club and competition cars. Our McLaren 720S and Lamborghini Aventador SVJ have been used at Harewood — we deliver to the paddock and arrange pre-event briefing on the vehicle's systems.

Croft Circuit

Thirty miles north of Harrogate near Darlington, Croft Circuit is a 2.12-mile permanent racing circuit that hosts British Touring Cars, British GT, and a year-round programme of public track days. The circuit's mix of fast sweepers, technical chicanes, and the challenging Tower hairpin rewards driver development at every level. We deliver vehicles to the Croft paddock from Harrogate, and can arrange transport back after the session if required.

Elvington Airfield

Twenty miles east of Harrogate near York, Elvington Airfield provides a 1.8-mile runway track that suits a wide range of vehicles and experience levels. The straight, open surface is ideal for exploring a McLaren 720S or Ferrari 488 Spider's performance envelope without the complexity of a permanent circuit. Novice-friendly and well-organised, Elvington is one of the most popular track day venues in the north of England, with regular public days throughout the season.

How to Book a Track Day Near Harrogate

Choose your car. Choose your circuit. Drive on track.

Porsche collection — step 1, track day car hire in Harrogate

1. Choose Car & Circuit

WhatsApp your preferred vehicle, circuit (Harewood, Elvington, or Croft), and date. We confirm availability and venue capacity, plus any circuit-specific requirements such as helmet and gloves. Midweek and weekend sessions both available, including early-morning bookings for Harewood in summer.

Porsche 911 GT3 RS — step 2, track day car hire in Harrogate

2. Book & Brief

On the day, you receive a vehicle orientation and track safety briefing before your first session. No surprises and no rushing at the circuit.

Porsche Gt3rs — step 3, track day car hire in Harrogate

3. Arrive & Drive

Arrive at the circuit. Receive the keys. Drive. Sessions build gradually — installation lap, confidence laps, then open performance laps as you find your rhythm. Our team is trackside throughout, available for guidance, vehicle adjustments, and GoPro footage capture. After the session, the debrief is as valuable as the laps themselves.

Circuit Guide — Track Day Venues Near Harrogate

Know the venue before you arrive — what each circuit offers.

Harewood Hill Climb

9 miles from Harrogate. 1.4 miles, 295ft elevation gain.

Set in the grounds of Grade I listed Harewood House, this is Britain's most prestigious hillclimb venue. The course climbs steeply through fast sweepers, tightening second-gear hairpins, and a technical crest before the finish. Surface quality is excellent throughout. Ideal for the Porsche GT3 RS and Lamborghini Performante — cars that reward mechanical grip on a shorter, highly technical layout where the driver makes the biggest difference.

Elvington Airfield

18 miles east of Harrogate. 1-mile straight, controlled environment.

A World War II airfield near York, Elvington hosts land speed record attempts and supercar acceleration days on its mile-long concrete runway. For those who want to experience what 710 hp of McLaren or 640 hp of Lamborghini delivers in a straight line — safely, without traffic, without limits — there is no better venue in North Yorkshire. Fully marshalled. Individual timed runs available. The raw acceleration at Elvington is unlike anything on a public road.

Croft Circuit

45 miles north of Harrogate. 2.1-mile FIA circuit, multiple configurations.

North Yorkshire's premier permanent racing circuit near Darlington. Croft hosts BTCC, Superbike, and GT championship rounds throughout the season. The circuit combines fast flowing corners with slow technical sections — the Clervaux sweeper, Tower complex, and Jim Clark Esses each demand different technique. Full pit lane, briefing rooms, and spectator areas. Private and corporate track hire available for groups from Harrogate and across the North.

What Our Track Day Clients Say

Verified reviews from drivers across North Yorkshire and the North.

★★★★★

"Hired the Lamborghini Huracan Performante at Harewood Hill Climb for my 40th. The briefing was thorough, the car was immaculate, and the sound it makes climbing that hill at full throttle is something I will never, ever forget. The team was professional from start to finish. Already planning the next one."

— Tom H., Driving Enthusiast, Harrogate

★★★★★

"Organised a corporate track day at Croft Circuit for 12 people from our Harrogate office — three supercars, timed laps, a proper results table. The logistics were completely handled by the team. We just turned up and drove. Everyone said it was the best company event we've ever done. Genuinely faultless organisation."

— Sarah K., Events Manager, North Yorkshire

★★★★★

"Did the multi-car package — GT3 RS, then the Huracan Performante, then the McLaren 720S at Elvington. Comparing them back to back in a straight line was genuinely revelatory. The 720S is on another level entirely. The GoPro footage is still my phone wallpaper. 10 out of 10 from start to finish."

— Daniel F., Supercar Enthusiast, Sheffield
