What are the requirements for obtaining a racing license?

[SanCali]

To obtain a racing license, you must first join and practice at a karting club of considerable scale (Note: It must be a large club, as major clubs can issue racing driver licenses and regularly host competitions). Only with a racing license of the corresponding level can you apply to participate in the respective races. After obtaining a regular driver's license for two years, you can enroll in the racing driver training program organized by the China Automobile and Motorcycle Sports Federation (CAMF). Detailed information: Joining and practicing at a karting club of considerable scale: First, join and practice at a local karting club of considerable scale (Note: It must be a large club, as major clubs can issue racing driver licenses and regularly host competitions). Once you have developed certain driving skills, you can apply for a racing license and participate in competitions within the club. Obtaining a racing license of the corresponding level: Racing licenses are divided into 5 levels. By earning a certain number of points at one level, you can apply for an upgrade. Through step-by-step competitions, you can eventually participate in national-level races. If you excel further, you may sign a contract with a preferred racing team and compete in international events—though this is extremely challenging. You can obtain a racing license at the CAMF Training Center, Beijing Haidian Driving School, or Fengbao Racing Club, among others. However, becoming a professional racing driver largely depends on financial resources. Without sponsors or sufficient funds, it is difficult to acquire even a basic race car suitable for circuit racing. Note: Since motorsports are not widely popular in China, substantial financial support is essential. Enrolling in the CAMF racing driver training program after two years of holding a regular driver's license: After two years of holding a regular driver's license, you can enroll in the CAMF racing driver training program, which includes rally training and circuit training. Rally training leads to an E-level racing license, while circuit training typically results in a C-level racing license. After participating in five or more races, drivers can apply for a higher-level license. Similarly, a domestic B-level license allows you to apply for an FIA racing license, enabling participation in international competitions.
