Track days in Chennai — MIC, MMRT, how it works.
Chennai is the centre of Indian circuit racing — Madras International Circuit (MIC) is FIA Grade 2 and the most active car and motorcycle circuit in the country, and the historic MMRT is right here too. Track days run year-round, organised by clubs, OEMs and specialist promoters.
What this looks like in practice
Run groups by skill, scrutineering, briefings, 15–25 minute sessions, paddock between sessions. Private OEM and club days often add instructor-led sessions and demo laps. RRS handles the operational side; production goes through long-trusted partners.
Where it actually happens
- Madras International Circuit (MIC)Chennai, Tamil Nadu
FIA Grade 2 circuit. The reference Indian circuit for car racing, motorcycle racing and track days.
- MMRT (Madras Motor Race Track)Chennai, Tamil Nadu
India's original purpose-built circuit. Still actively used for track days and racing.
How to take part
Public-facing track days at MIC and MMRT are organised by clubs and specialist promoters — book through them. Helmet, gloves, long sleeves and a roadworthy vehicle that passes scrutineering are typically mandatory. Private club / OEM track days RRS operates are invitation-only through the organising club or brand.
Who runs it (and where RRS fits)
Track days are organised by FMSCI-affiliated clubs, OEM brand teams and specialist promoters. RRS is the operations partner when retained — software, run groups, scrutineering, timing, paddock, gate.
Common questions
Why is Chennai the centre of Indian circuit racing?+
Because both Madras International Circuit (MIC) and the historic MMRT are here. MIC is FIA Grade 2 and the most active circuit in India for car racing, motorcycle racing and track days. Most national championships have at least one round here.
Can I just turn up at MIC for a track day?+
No. Track days at MIC are organised events on scheduled dates — by clubs, OEMs, specialist promoters or championship support paddocks. You book a slot through the organising body. Helmet, harness, tyres and brakes get scrutineered before you go out.
Can RRS run a private track day at MIC for our club or brand?+
Yes — this is one of our most active engagements. Operations, run groups, scrutineering, timing, paddock and gate. Production coordinated via long-trusted partners. Talk to us.
