Default the definative poll, which track?

so which circuit for the site track day? the top 3 seem to be brands, donnington or cadwell park?

I would suggest out of the three cadwell would be the most suited to the sv and the majority of people on the site but personally I would like to try either donnington or cadwell.

you choose

Thanks Joe,

I voted Brands because it is closer to me but wouldn't mind Cadwell or Donnington. Also, when I spoke to the guys at FE last year, they said they may be able to organise a discounted rate if there are enough blokes from the site. I will endeavour to get minimum numbers from them but it will be as part of one of there own organised days, so bookings will have to take place pretty briskly once we have decided on a date and track.(That is of course subject to us deciding whether we are organising or joining an organised event with FE or others)

I have voted Cadwell as it is more central, and closer to me. Personally brands is too far for me, i like to just make a day of it (no stopovers) and driving that far in an unfamiliar van....racing round a track then driving god knows how many miles home will be just a little too much. I have noticed that there are a lot of southerners interested in the trackday. so as a suggestion how about organising two trackdays, one for south and one for north?

I've voted Donington but Cadwell would be just peachy. I reckon the location of Brands is the killer, it's very convenient for some but very inconvenient for others, while the midlandsy circuits are more doable for everyone.

I voted Cadwell, like Northwind, as Brands is an 830 mile round trip, Donington or Cadwell 600 miles from Edinburgh. For me I would probably take three days off work as that would be too much in one day so would also be looking for somwhere to camp or a B&B. Anyone have any suggestions for that?

if this is the definitive poll should this one be made sticky and the other not?

Brands Hatch is closer to me but voted for Donnington.... somewhere in the Middle.
