I've just booked this day and it seems great value for an open pit lane day. It's being organised by what seems like a new track day company and one of the owners seems to be a member of the BRDC? Also says that they've got use of the BRDC club house for everyone that books with them? I've never seen this before and have done more than my fair share of track days at Sillystone. Hoping to see some fellow Pistonhead members there as it seems like it's going to be a fantastic day.

Heres a link to where i booked it, The company is called The Racing Line.

Booked it a couple of weeks ago through trackdays.co.uk.

I checked the usual organisers sites but couldn't work out who was organising it. Only just come across this thread.

I'll be the in the GT3 with the novice sticker on the back smile

Let us know when you sort it out, or come and say hi on the day. I have only done Silverstone GP on a bike previously, and that was the old layout. Really looking forward to the day.
