Hi,

I was looking at signing up to brands hatch mid april with motorsportvision. I have not used this company before, does anybody know how their days compare to other event organisers (easytrack, BaT etc)?

thanks

Motorsport Vision own Brands,Oulton,Snetterton,Cadwell and Bedford! If you book with them you are booking direct with the owners of the track. The track day will be run properly and they won't stand for any nonsense.

I did a Brands beginners day recently. Very well run. I'd recommend them.

If you're doing the indy circuit. Motorsportvision's website says 105 db for Indy, 101 db for the Grand Prix circuit.

I've done two of them, and they were both very well run and huge fun. If you want to see a review (Brands Indy) and some pics/video of what to expect on the day, check this out:

I have done the Renault Sport Trackdays with MSV and they have all been really well run, nice and safe with no silly antics on track. The one thing I do like is they have always used the Blue flag to warn slower drivers to move over, which IMO is a big plus on trackdays.

Did a novice day with MSV last week. It went really smoothly.

They do more than most track day organisers, like taking the drivers round in a transits to start with, and point out what to do when, and they also set out marker cones all round the track for braking points, turn-in, and apex point. That REALLY helps.

Overtaking is not permitted round corners and only on the left hand side. Some may find this restrictive, but it certainly makes it a lot safer, and more predictable.

And the best bit?

They gave out free bacon butties!!!!

Standard Track Day protocol.

I've done a couple of days with them and will be on track again on the 18th April.
