airfield hire- handling day

[GTSJOE]

Hello, I am trying to find a patch of tarmac, maybe next to an airfield / testing ground, to set up a handling course/ cones etc for an historic MGB race car. I want to practice handling, opposite lock etc, would book a normal track or test day but organisers would not be too happy with ragged driving ...100 mile radius of London would be ideal. I have tried Bruntingthorpe & Bovingdon.. no joy..

Thanks

Have you got the right insurance in place?

How about asking Andy Walsh at Carlimits?

Speak to Carlimits, they may be able to accommodate.

Thank you for the shout, will try Carlimits.

Re Insurance, I would take out the requisite insurance if it was required, I don't tend to bother with insurance when do test days/ track days.

Bicester Heritage have a track that you can hire for testing https://bicesterheritage.co.uk/venue-hire/.

Silverstone? They certainly hire out carparks for things like Caterham drift/handling days in the week, or on quiet weekends. May not be as daftly £££ as you'd think.

I tried Silverstone, £1500 for the day, had to use their Caterham. That’s for a car park area with cones, not the track. Quite expensive. Car limits are the best so far. £100 per hour for part of the track & you can bring along your own car

I'd have thought a normal car limits day would be fine, I spent a lot of time going sideways during the second half of the day.

be aware though that you will shred your tyres as the surface is very abrasive.
