M4 Minimoto Junior Race School

Welcome to the M4 Minimoto Junior Race School

What do we do

As a company we have been specialising in racing minimotos for nearly 30years and have had a race support vehicle at the British Minimoto Championships for over 20years now. In 2004 we obtained our own indoor track and a couple of years later we started the first ever Junior race school.

The race school coaches children from 5 years old to prepare them for their start in the Fab Racing British Minimoto Championship and then continue their journey throughout their years in the series.

The sessions are run early on a Sunday morning mid-October through to March, they are purely focussed on training and riders will be doing drills, debriefs and at the end of the morning a little race

The M4 Minimoto Race School caters for newcomers that have had prior experience with a petrol engined bike - we need to be confident that your young one can already handle the basics of throttle, brakes, and balance - we can then focus on expanding from there - this can be simply just a PW50 type bike in a field, or a friends minimoto in a car park. We cannot take the responsibilty of teaching your young one to ride a bike, only to make them better riders.

For newcomers we have 4 bikes available on the race school mornings , these will be allocated in blocks of 3 week terms – the cost of those 3 weeks will be £210 all-inclusive, and the bike is yours for the session and not shared. At the end of those 3 weeks the bikes must be available to another newcomer and its time to get your own race bike and gear

Already got a bike – that’s great, get your application in for a space. Bikes must be suitable for training, ideally a FAB legal rookie bike otherwise please check with us, we do not allow the Chinese bikes or Baby Blata 2.5s, we also won’t allow unsuitable bikes that are too fast. Newcomers with their own bikes must sign up to a 3-week block at £120 – This is so that the rider and coach can create a bond and work on progression.

FAQS

Due to many racing commitments we run in the non-racing season which is October to March, Its on Sunday mornings doors open at 7am and we like to be in the briefing room by 7.30am. The track is ours until 10am

How Old do you need to be?

You can start racing at Fab from 5.5yrs so we start training from 5yrs, typically at the school riders are up to 9yrs but we have riders that are older

Do they need to have experience?

Not necessarily on a minimoto but must have basic experience of riding a petrol engined bike - we need assurance that your child has the basic ability to pull away, pick their feet up on the pegs and then stop and put their feet down - we can work from there
