Default Trackday websites

Where is everyone's first port-of-call when looking for a trackday to attend? Is there one site which is normally cheaper/more user-friendly etcetera?

Focused events is good.
Also check out hottrax and MSV.

FE's organisation at cadwell other week was tip top. But Iv'e heard a couple of bad things about hottrax now.

Out of all of the ones I've been with I would say that http://nolimitstrackdays.com/ seem to be the most professional. Obviously it is different for different people, but they seem to just have the edge over Focusedevents or Hottrax.

Poor organisation, no yellow flags just red so most sessions seems to end early. They don't enforce rules or so it seems complaints of dangerous riding get ignored,

Complaint I heard was at a mallory day they sat and watched 6 or 7 bikes go down in the exact same spot one after another before deciding there might be a little bit of oil down or something.

I remember going on NoLimits before and finding it straightforward and pro-looking. Ive found Cadwell Park for £39 (obvs, because I'm a student), and it's a night. Any reason why I shouldnt book that? Ive never been there nor on a trackday, is there any vast problem with evenings other than obvious?

Get it done, you will love it. No limits have free instructors, so if you dont feel confident, ask them to go out with you, they will inspire you & give you some really good information.
Only problem doing trackdays is it becomes addictive.
