How To
How do you start racing in another place?
First, you need to locate a local club that allows you to practice and compete. Due to the differences in driving laws, racing in other countries can prove very challenging. Some countries, for example, prohibit drivers from taking overtaking at any location on the road. Other countries only allow overtaking when entering a roundabout. Some countries require that cars make a specific sound when entering or exiting a roundabout. The best thing to do before traveling overseas is to research the regulations for each country you plan to visit. You won't be issued a ticket by the police for violating the law.
