Default org trackday- 3 options

hey guys,
it looks like we have 3 options for the trackday that phil 24_7 has kindly posted dates for, and then ive thrown a spanner in the works with this option:

Option one: Do the silverstone trackday on 1st March

Option two: Do the rockingham trackday on 22th March

Option three: be greedy like me and treacle and do both

I know some people wouldnt be able/want to to do both but itd be nice to see who'd like to do both with us (either way my standard system is gonna have to go back on teal as its soooo loud )

Because I did Mallory with Hotrax and their organising abilities were sh!t amongst other things.

And I have heard lots of good things about No Limits.

No limits are amazing but never heard anything bad about hottrax, they're just not top drawer like NL.

Both tracks are good if your a newbie/learner/nervous as rockingham is quite small and not too complicated and silverstone is nice and wide with lots of run off lol
Did my one and only trackday at rockingham with css and loved it!, did bikesafe day at silverstone

Rockingham National Circuit
A mostly left handed circuit contained in the centre of the Rockingham facility. It has its own blend of fast left and right hand turns and a short straight links them together, The short National circuit is technical,

Voted rockingham because I did silverstone GP 3 times last year and the national layout doesn't appeal to me. I'd rather wait until june/aug when focussed events do another circuit saver on the full circuit.

Dunno if you've ever done a trackday but if you want to go fast do Silverstone and if you want loads of nice tight-ish corners do the Rock. I'd say SV for the Rock and Ninja for Silverstone. Rockingham is one of the few tracks in England with a good amount of left handers too.
