Default Trackday near in or around West Yorkshire?

Any biker-friendly tracks in or around West Yorkshire? The nearest track I can find to me is Croft in North Yorkshire but are there any others?

Cadwell isn't far away from you, in north Lincs, and Oulton is on the other side of the hills.

Checked the distances on google maps and it appears that Oulton is the closest to me out of those lot (approx 80 miles away). I'm seriously considering booking a trackday there in the next few months.

Just two quick questions:

1. Would it be an okay track for a novice?

2. Would anyone else from the Pennine Massive be up for a ride there in October sometime?

Very much so, only it'd have to be a track that allows people on restricted licenses on.

MSV tracks are fussy apparantly, which means Oulton and Cadwell might be out

Oh right, I'm also on a restricted license so will need to check if I'd be allowed on the track.

I didn't think they'd really check your license considering it's not on the public highway? I hear about plenty of 14/15/16 year olds getting into racing at tracks and they cannot even get a car or bike license?
