It might be short, but it isn't easy to learn, there isn't a single easy corner, and one of them is down right scarey! Still good fun though |

Can confirm that Brands has a good run off. Used it last year you'd be amazed how far an SV can dig itself into the gravel...

I found Brands easier to learn than somewhere like Donington due to its size and only having 6 corners. It's loads more technical than Snetterton which although faster is an easier track to get to grips with - but there didn't seem much support for it on the vote.

I just looked back through the thread on it appears that what is required is Brands at the weekend in between June and September - that's going to be tough.
The only weekend date on UKTrackdays.co.uk for Brands is on 25th June but that's on the GP circuit and supposed to be with Focused Events - but it's not on FE's website so might no be available. I'd be up for a March trackday but I know some people might think its too cold and likely to be wet. Week day summer fixture looks most likely then. Personally I'd have thought it was easier to agree on a track day and book it yourself/in small groups directly. I'd go for Monday 19th June - £149 direct with Focused Events (£159 through UKTrackdays) - but am flexible on the general consensus

Just out of interest is this just for SV's or former SV riders? (I may be tempted to use the SV as the bits are cheaper if I bin it)
