Trackday Venues
Does anyone have a comprehensive list of which race circuits run or allow motorcycle track days?
Looking to do one but don't know where does them and want to assess all the options before I choose. Regards

Re: Trackday Venues
These are the main three that I have used in the past. Just find the calendar section and see which tracks they all offer. As they all cater for different tracks.

Re: Trackday Venues
Your main choices are, assuming you don't want to travel more than 4 hours the day before:
Pembrey - IMO the best allrounder Llandow - Small though easy to learn, I probably wouldn't do this track again because pembrey is the same money, 30 mins further and over 5 times better. I'd only reccomend llandow over pembrey for those who are not very confident road riders. Castle coombe - has tight noise restrictions so if you've got an aftermarket can you may not get on. There's also a lack of hairpins boooo Silverstone - very fast track, longest circuit out of the bunch which means you'll be doing less laps per session which makes learning it a bit more difficult Brands Hatch - GP circuit is expensive with limited dates and noise restrictions, indy circuit is usually the same cost as silverstone full circuit. This track has the most changes in elevation whereas llandow, pembrey, silverstone (and presumably CC) are all totally flat. |
