Hi,

I agree with Trelo.

The only time I have ever been asked for my road license was at the Dutton Rally.

I have been to open track days at Eastern Creek, Wakefield, Burrows drive days, Motoconcept days, BMW driver training days and BMW club events and never been asked for my civil license.

In fact, there is the infamous driver at BMW club meets who owns 4 M's plus other BMW's. He lost his license in a well publicised event, which everyone in the club knows about. He still competes, and is actually the fastest guy in the club He has to get a friend to drive the car to the track though

Thanks for the info Brad. Will do
