How To
How do you start racing in another place?
First, find a local club to practice your skills and compete. It can be challenging to race in another country because of different driving laws. Some countries prohibit drivers from overtaking at any point along the road. Others allow drivers to overtake only when they enter a roundabout. Some countries require that cars make a specific sound when entering or exiting a roundabout. The best thing you can do before you travel to another country is to read the regulations. You won't be issued a ticket by the police for violating the law.
