Yep, you are able to turn up and watch from the side which gives you a fairly decent view of a couple of corners.

I havent done to many track days but have done Abingdon twice and recommend MSE and Abingdon. Although some people dont like air fields but the plus point is there isn't much you can hit smile

I'll be there once the weather brightens up a little.

Yes you can watch, BUT its far easier paying £10 and getting a pass to be a passenger in an car smile

If you come you can go sideways with me in a little MX5, some of the Carterham boys might let you be a passenger!

OH as long as you are not 18stone i dont mind........


As i only have 130Bhp per ton!
