Poznan

Here’s an in-depth motorcycle trackday profile of Tor Poznań (Poznań Circuit), Poland’s premier full-size racing facility:

🏁 Circuit Overview

Length: 4.083 km (~2.54 miles) with 14 turns (5 left, 9 right) and a ~560 m longest straight
Width: Approximately 12 m, offering ample overtaking space and high-speed confidence
Elevation: Moderate (6–7 m total change), but with enough camber shifts to affect traction and line choice
Certification: Only FIA Grade‑3 circuit in Poland, homologated for international motorcycle and car racing

Flowing yet technical: The blend of fast flowing bends, medium-speed rhythm sections, and short straights challenges braking, throttle timing, and corner entry consistency
Track surface: Smooth and grippy, especially after its 2006 resurfacing, allowing confidence for riders of all levels
Widely loved by Polish trackday riders: Often described as “Poland’s best circuit,” it’s a staple for local riders and visiting trackday groups

Strict noise limit – 98 dB static measured at 50% of max engine RPM. Full compliance is mandatory—no exceptions
Lap timing required (typically €15–30/day), even for trackdays, with timing “cube” units rented on site
Instructors available for the slowest group in initial sessions to guide novice riders

Main straight into T1: Long acceleration into a heavy braking zone—excellent practice for braking control and stability
Medium-speed flowing sequence (Turns 2‑6): Smooth transitions are key; momentum matters over raw power
Final complex into pit entry: Technical series of bends where clean lines determine exit speed and lap consistency

Smooth riding through fast bends, careful throttle application, and accurate vision lines make a big difference here.

Tyres: Warmers recommended. Track surface is grippy but unforgiving off-line; front tyre traction is critical early in sessions
Brakes & suspension: Prioritize strong front feel and solid braking response over soft compliance. Trail braking is rewarded
Body position: Minimal upper body movement through transition sections and cambered corners helps maintain traction and control

Providers: CR Moto (Lithuania/Poland) runs most events, often collaborating with coaching schools such as California Superbike School and 3MM Racing Academy
Session format: Typically multi-day events offering 4–6 group sessions per day (20 minutes each) with lunch intervals; total track time ~3–4 hours per day
Box rental: €90–160 per day (depending on event), fitting 4–6 bikes per box
Amenities: Coffee shop, food services, timing photo options, powered paddock, and basic box setup available

Intermediate to advanced riders looking to refine braking, throttle control, and line precision
Riders on 600cc to 1000cc sportbikes seeking a balanced, flow-rich but demanding circuit
Riders aiming for organized, graded trackday structure with lap timing and instructors
Those wanting to experience Poland’s flagship circuit in a safe and well-supported environment

Watch onboard laps or simulator sessions before your first ride to learn brake markers and blind approaches
Use your opening session to scout grip levels and test braking zones at reduced speed
Book services, timing cubes, and garages early—slots sell out fast, especially for summer weekdays
Stay hydrated and take regular cooldown breaks between sessions; surface grip can evolve as the day heats
