Donnington Park, National Circuit, advice please.

[Jonleeper]

Really as per the title!

I have a trackday next weekend at Donnington on the National Circuit and I've never been there before. I was wondering if there was any PH wisdom that I could take on board before I get there.

Many thanks,

Jon

It's Donington, to help with the SatNav routing

That might help, thanks.

There's a circuit guide at Lotus on Track - http://www.lotus-on-track.com/circuit_guide/doning...
I usually search for some in-car videos from similar cars to watch before I go somewhere new
And get some tuition early on the day

Great guide, thanks.

Excellent! Can you add braking point please?

Brake, right, right, left, brake(less than you believe sane), right, left, left, gentle dab, right, dab, right, brake hard, right, left, repeat

Craners are pretty much flat in the wet in mine (mx5 tho..), easy flat in the dry. The old 'hairpin' isn't, is more of a kink, Coppice is my bette-noir - over the crest, unsighted.

Oh, and it's slick as you like in the wet, but so are most circuits I've been to. It's not the planes, that's an old wives tale. I did find a river on the exit to hollywood once, that woke me up..

This is why I love PH! ;-) Since I'm not sure what I'll be driving I won't ask you to add timings......


Thanks,


Jon
