Sorry but no I can't understand why you would pay £175 for a weekday when you can do a full day weekend day for £150. It's my favourite track and its all the better for having a variety of cars out there. Mixing my TVR with Elises, classic sportsters, road cars, etc. Great fun.

Book on-line Croft Circuit couldn't be easier.

Not wishing to hijack the thread - but is anybody looking at doing one of the Satudray dates in July. Depending on the race schedule, was going to take the race car and some sponsors

Here's hoping I was right when I said there was nothing to hit there.

Yes I'm thinking of doing one of them. July is a full month for me though so I may end up having to wait until August

Track days are restricted to road legal cars. MOT, tyres, etc. Not sure your Ginetta would be permitted.

Perhaps we should encourage minimax to bring his RV8 Ginetta and we can play with that one.

The majority of track day cars these days are not road legal - certainly not SVA'd (pretty much nothing that comes out of the Radical factory has been through SVA - and you certainly see one or two of those about).

We haven't had a problem with the Ginetta anywhere yet (other than it being a bit noisey).

However, we obviously always check first, and I will naturally ring Croft to find out. Quite like the circuit though, and it is pretty safe, so it would be a top choice.

Anyway - need to see when our reshceduled Silverstone rounds fall, then try to sort something out.
