My dad turns sixty next year in may and i would love to take him on a track day in the elise.

I have done a few myself but he hasnt, he is a complete car/motorsport nut so i would like to chose somewhere nice but forgiving at the same time so he can drive the car with out worrying about tyre walls ect.

Any suggestions guy and girls??

Thanks

Snetterton is easy to learn, has just enough features to be memorable and nothing much to hit - surely the novice venue of choice?

I went to bedford for my first trackday and i must say it is a relaxed as ive felt on a track just purely because you cant hit anything.

Would you rather have a more relaxed time or would you rather go to a track with abit of history?

I was just going to suggest the same myself!! I've been instructing there all weekend, and yesterday wasn't particularly busy, that was on the National circuit, but today on the Coastal circuit, it was very busy! We haven't had a "red flag" for any damage on either day, only the odd one for mechanical brakdowns!!!
