I'm thinking of doing a trackday at Dijon this year, has anyone done one? Is it worth the trip? Any info/feedback would be welcome, thanks.

Yes, cracking track, its not Spa type epic as its too short, but fast & fun nonetheless, undulating & a fair challenge, its a bit like Zandvoort.

Oh come off the Peage early not far from Troyes, you want to take the D671/971 via Mussy sur seine, Chatillion su seine, Saint seine l'abbaye, all the way to the circuit & then Dijon beyond if you are staying there, its an utterly cracking road, don't go too mad is a police presence, but the later part of it is- IMHO, up there as one of the best roads in France, worth doing even if you are lugging a trailer.

Thanks Iguana. I'll definitely take your advice on the route, that road sounds interesting smile
What were the TDO's like? There's a day at the end of July that's a possibility, but it's a French organiser. My French is, shall we say, limited smile

Send them an email, lots of French people are not limited to the one language;) Dijon is a 'must do', lovely technical circuit, get it right and youll be smiling all the way home.Love chateau village nearby, ,Chateau Neuf, hotel I think its called, best steaks/red wine in the area.

It is one of those tracks, great technical layout one side with a superlong pitstraight.Really worth the effort .
