    The first date on the Dubai Autodrome calendar is the Test & Welcome Day on November 14 when teams will have test sessions after taking part in an ESKC workshop.

    ESKC director and Kartdrome manager Ryan Trutch said: “The Test & Welcome Day is an opportunity for us to meet the teams and also for the team members to get to know their rivals in a relaxed atmosphere, while familiarizing themselves with the format of the series.”

    The first day on the Dubai Autodrome calendar is Test & Welcome Day on November 14.

    “The workshop will provide updated information to all the participants and offer a platform to address questions from teachers, students and parents involved in the series. Registered and paid-up teams will then be able to test in race-like conditions.”

    The ESKC is being run along with partner circuits Al Ain Raceway, RAK Track and Al Forsan Raceway under the auspices of the ATCUAE.
