TOC-Aylezo Racing Academy is a true test and provides an opportunity for all automotive enthusiasts who want to embark on this adrenaline-filled industry,” said Zen, founder of Aylezo.

In this 8-week course, students will have a vast view of Motorsport, learning from the basics such as the proper seating position and how to control the car in various situations, all the way to learning about the car and the way it feels and how to communicate with the engineers. It is a chance to experience what a race driver and his crew goes through on a daily basis at the circuit, in a controlled manner at the academy’s purpose-built Go-Kart track with world-class simulators.
