Yes, with Motorport Events on a few occasions. Nice organisers(Ed and Natasha) and the track layout is not at all bad. Nice mixture of straights and twisty bits. Plenty of run off to learn to make mistakes. Surface can have a few chippings on it so don't get too close to cars in front. Beware rozzers with speed cameras/lasers in nearby village.

Ditto.

Ed very handy on the track!

I hope they've resurfaced it since I was last there (land-yachting about 10 years ago). I wouldn't take my car on there if you paid me otherwise.

I'll not take my Elise there again - certainly not suitable for stiff suspension. There are sections that you are forced to drive over that actually have potholes!

Seconded about the surface, truly awful. Shame as it is about 2 miles from where I am sitting now. Interesting track layout and motorsport events were a good organiser. A lot of experienced drivers the day I went that was slightly intimidating for a newbie

agreed about the circuit. surface is ridiculous and to be honest its too tight in places too where they have put cones out. didn't enjoy it really as i felt quite restricted there in terms of getting the most out of my car. nice people though and do look out for all those speed cameras on the way!
