If I wasn't on holiday for the first, and already booked in at Oulton for the second, I'd have joined you!

Have a great day smile

Its gone up now. Its with Focused Events again. The price is up and dow like a yoyo. Started at £130 it was upto £169 mid week its now £150. Not sure if I will be going now. I'm either doing this one or the Alfaholics Castle Combe Trackday for Alfa 105's on April 16th. Can't afford both

If it's less than £150 I will book again. Loved it last time, really got a fair pace going towards the end of the day smile

Focused events are useless.They dont use the blue flag,and im yet to do a day with them where they dont black flag me for overtaking.
If your quicker and someone doesnt let you past then you have got to overtake them on the corner.

The other thing is its dangerous as theres way too many cars on the track for my liking.

Someone mentioned trackdays.com for being good with behaviour and numbers.?

Your right, but have you seen their prices, it would probably be £300-£400 at Donington. If you think Focused Events are bad you should do a track day with Javalin.

Unless this falls on the half term week?

Kids go back to school on the Tuesday. But that's in Bristol, check your local authority John.

Looking forward to my second track day here, will be good to get in the groove from the start this time.
