Re: TV Track Day.
Thruxton is about as South as you can get, near Andover. Brands Hatch is near Dartford, so not that far away as well. Silverstone is not all that far away either.
Rockingham is quite far away (near Leicester). If we're going that far we may as well do a decent track like Cadwell with some hills in it. Rockingham looks flat and boring to me. I guess price will be the factor here, I will also have to purchase a leather jacket and maybe even new trousers before doing a track day so I might be out of contention. There is also Castle Coombe near Bath, great little track. |

Castle Combe suffers from the harshest noise restrictions of any circuit going. A STANDARD GSX-R600 won't pass they're noise limit, so probably a lot of hassle. Rockingham may look flat, but it's a very technical circuit, probably nice for SV's and Ginger Hornets It's also 100 miles from The Shire pub, probably do-able in a day. Cadwell Park is almost 200 and a 4 hour trip, certainly not do-able in a day.... Brands is close but expensive, and Silverstone is the same. Dan, if leathers are the only thing holding you back, I have an old set that may fit you..... you can borrow them if you want them. |

Re: TV Track Day.
Oh yeah, and I'm up for this (depending on date )
Not bothered about which circuit, as I'm doing Brands GP in May |
