Just letting people know bout this as they're not very advertised.
£120 for the day, 9 - 5 with an hour for lunch.
4 x 15 minute groups.
Me and a few mates are booked in and should be a good day.

Only one run per hour!! The price is ok for a small circuit but not enough track time for me.

these are very well run, have done a few and not like a typical track day; think of it more as a test session....

Lydden is a great little circuit of you've not been yet give it a go, and only an hr from the M25...

Have I missed something? I've never seen a trackday with more than 1 run per hour, usually 20 min sessions though,
But 15 minutes is plenty of time per session here for me as its 15+ laps of hard graft for your car, with no long straights to relax on, and any longer and my tyres would dissintegrate and engine boil over.

No funny rules about overtaking etc etc, just be sensible.

jay, I planned on being there, but they dont take passengers and my mate is here visiting that weekend and cant really expect him to spectate. And he is not driving my car before you ask

Its a good circuit for £120 and I plan on doing a few there this year, and the overtaking rules, or lack of, work quite well it seems.

suprised you dont know about open pit lane too!

Shame, especially as you've done a day there now and have are getting to grips with the track.
There's quite a few days coming up here so might see you at one of these.
