Prices 2023
Please take into account our billing system when planning and carrying out your tests:
- Each test vehicle receives an on-board unit from us, which records all usage based on GPS.
- Billing begins as soon as a vehicle is in a track area for more than two minutes.
- Billing is per 1/2 hour / per used track element / per test vehicle according to the current price list.
- Within a started hour, you can leave and re-enter the booked track element as often as you like without further costs.
- If several track elements are used in alternation, each track element is recorded and calculated individually according to the billing system.
eg. you alternate with 1 vehicle for 1/2 hour back and forth between oval and handling course. The billing system, will charge you for the oval for 1/2 hour and the handling course for 1/2 hour. - When booking a track element exclusively, it can be used with any number of vehicles.
