The GP circuit is old school. Narrow, fast with little run off. Hawthorns is still a proper corner in a world of homogensied sterile circuits. That long straight before it, means you are going to be getting a move on to the approach to it, so requires commitment and respect. Stirlings is another great corner, that when you get it right fires you out onto the approach to Clearways. It's great.

£500 for the day with RMA. I would love to drive the GP but it's so much money.

We charged £499. It's a SHOCKING amount of money to charge but the circuit hire requires it. For the MSV day it seems to be run in 3 groups with 20 minutes per hour. It's a good way of getting on an amazing circuit if you don't mind having less tracktime. I'd say go for it.

£500 for open pit is better value in my view but I really don't like sessions!

101db day, cancels out GT3's and a lot of regular trackday cars, a great pity, great track.

It's a shame but that's what happens when you build a housing estate with back gardens that finish at the ARMCO.

Indeed, just like it is today where I am (phew, it's absolutely baking) will do just fine; With something like we've got - a Radical on slicks with full air conditioning biglaugh - and on the awesome GP Circuit with only 'aero-compatible' cars in the 'ROC Session', I really can't imagine how it could get any better thumbup

If anyone with a similar type car (Rads, Junos, Jades, ADRs etc etc) hasn't already heard about this through the grapevine and fancies it, by all means PM me and I'll be happy to pass on details.

Look forward to seeing you all - come say hi!
