applying for a racing license from AAM is easy,

all you need to do is make your way to your preferred AAM office. Shah Alam one is where I usually go.

When you're there, a representative will serve you and ask you some basic questions, wether you're racing cars, go karts or bikes and such.

Then you'll be required to take an exam. Not to worry because literally everyone will pass this test.

You'll need to pay a fee to get your license made. You'll need your passport photos, 2 of them.

But before all the above, you'll need to go take a medical test, specifically for applying a race license. You'll need to go to an AAM panel clinic, so do a search online and you'll see a list. There's one in USJ i believe and there's one in Centrepoint bandar utama.

At the clinic, you'll be tested for colour blindness, eye test, blood pressure, blood test and so on. You'll need these test results to apply the AAM race license

hope this helps, good luck and enjoy your coming races

Apparently yes since in races you have different sets of rules and how the vehicle is operated compared to normal cars.Plus,they don’t teach you to aim for the apex at normal driving schools bro

What race are you entering? It's better to make sure you're all set before proceeding to acquire an AAM racing license because it'll expire every 31st December of the year
