Javelin Trackdays

[BJT]

Anybody used these guys? I only have so many days in the country and want to det a couple of track days in during April & May.
Looks like they are mainly Air Fields but that is fine with me.

Just wondered if any body has any experience, good or bad...?

[wackojacko]

Yep did a day with them at Combe a year ago, They were ok...

I was 17 then and had to have an indemnity form sent over so I could print it off and get it signed by a parent..... I booked it a month before.... took 3 weeks of nagging for it to finally be sent over after each time speeking to them being assured it would be sent "later" or "tomorrow" at one point they said they had heard nothing of the sort and could not send a copy via email !

Other than that it was a pretty good experience, forany that won't be a problem being under 18.

Used them many times, very strict re bad driving which is good. Always have a good day with them.

[BJT]

All good news, thanks!
I'm a fan of the strict rules, don't want some idiot planting their car in to mine. Thinking of trying one of the Airfields at the start of May. Loads of "run off" to help me explore the limits of the Evo

have been on two days with them and both were well run and they are very friendly.

No complaints very well organised day.

I just had to cancel a Javelin day for tomorrow because I lost my brake pads on Saturday. I emailed Colin from Javelin to ask if I could postpone and he said on this isolated occasion yes. Its a genuine reason and I tried all day to get new ones fitted with no luck. I'm happy not to have lost my money. Id like to say thanks publically to Javelin for being a cool customer focused business. I will definitely use them again just because of this. Thought I'd share this on the Javelin thread.

Run with Javelin on many events - trackdays and competitive sprints. Colin and Bob's organisation is exceptional and we will keep returning

[BJT]

All great news! Looks like I will get cracking and book an event.
Cheers for all the advice

Did my first ever track day with javelin last month, very well ran and friendly. As said above they are strict but in a good way.

I have been on many track days with Javelin together with my son. We are big fans of the events and the strict rules. We drive very hard and so does everyone else but they soon have you off if you are being irresponsible. That is why we book first with Javelin. Well run events that are fun

[Phoenix673]

Nothing but praise for Colin and his team........had many trackdays with them all of which were conducted in a very relaxed manner (unless rules were broken!!). They give their marshalls first class training in fire and initial rescue actions and I wouldn't hesitate to recommend them, especially to trackday novices.

[Mark Benson]

More positives here, nothing but praise for them. Friendly, family atmosphere but no nonsense tolerated - just as it should be.

[BJT]

Looks like they are good then!
Thanks

Have only used Javlin, never had a reason to use other organisers.

Colin & team are very reasonable and friendly
Days are well priced

Great for beginners

Great for beginners and experts alike

[paulshears]

I've done 4 trackdays with Javelin, very happy with them

[agent006]

Did a day at Anglesey with them last year. They had 12 cars booked and still ran the event. I imagine plenty of TDOs would have cancelled.

[Ash 996 GT2]

Javelin run an event for my company every year, some of you may know about it as we often ask PHers to come and drive our clients round the track.

Nuff said.

Same has happened with a friend, blew her engine up and they've said she can go on another day later in the year. I did my first this week with them at Bedford and it was excellent. They re ran the driver briefing for some of us as we were late too. Very happy with them.
