Why do you need to go trackside, Brands has some good shots from the spectator areas. For club meetings they'll want an accreditation letter from the editor of a recognised publication and examples of previously published work.

Shooting for your own website is highly, highly unlikely to get you trackside at a race meeting. Think about it - if it were enough, they would have thousands of togs trackside at every race meeting.
