Just to clarify, for my own (possibly others) insurance purposes, are we 'piggy-backing' onto an already organised track day, or renting a whole circuit?

I only ask, because my insurance has just one stipulation for 'free' UK track cover; that the event is organised by a recognised car club or track day organiser (i.e. registered with ATDO or suchlike).
I would suggest under the circumstances that we stick to an ATDO track day to ensure there won't be any issues for those that would want to insure.

Hope that's ok for us to work on that premise?
Thanks for the clarification. (Might be useful for others too)

In that case, other than if there's a diary clash, please count me in too. thumbup
Great so if anyone that's interest post their options on tracks and dates, we'll see where we can get to over the next few days and book something upcool

Good call Cuno.

I'll look through some options and post a list later on for both events and see what suits everyone.

That was my intention to make it a GT only TD with folks from here.

Here's the Silverstone dates :

Thursday 11 April* Open Pit Lane Grand Prix Circuit £419

Monday 20th May Open Pit Lane Grand Prix Circuit £469

Monday 3 June Open Pit Lane Grand Prix Circuit £469

Monday 22 July* Open Pit Lane Grand Prix Circuit £469

Thursday 8 August Open Pit Lane Grand Prix Circuit £469

Apart from 11th April, the rest are good for me

This Aston exclusive trackday saga suggests joining an ATDO/Club day is way better than a self organised day

If almost GT4s are allowed I’d be good for Silverstone except in June

What about Donington 18th June BaT £375 noise day (cheapest noise day I could find) There are 53 spaces available and it's in the middle of the country so hopefully easier for the majority to get to? And a ATDO member so insurance cover is easier to sort.

I'm already booked on this event and the PCGB Silly day on the 17th June.

You're usually at them all anyway and the only reason why you aren't doing the 11th is due to a clash with another trackday! tongue out

Guys, if you can list out what days/dates you can/would like to do, I think if we make it either Donington or Silverstone as these are relatively central.

We can then see what the best is for a group gathering, if we run the thread say until a week tomorrow, I'll collate it and come up with a short list for early w/c 11 March?

For Donington I've listed Bookatrack as they run a good event and listed the dates with plenty of spaces:

Fri 17 May 2019
National Circuit, Open pit lane
BookaTrack £325 BOOK
57 places

National Circuit, Open pit lane, 98dB
Wed 29 May 2019
BookaTrack £325 BOOK
58 places

GP Circuit, Open pit lane, 98dB
Fri 7 June 2019
BookaTrack £325 BOOK
55 places

Donington Park
GP Circuit, Open pit lane, Unsilenced
Tue 18 June 2019
BookaTrack £375 BOOK
53 places

National Circuit, Open pit lane, 98dB
Fri 26 July 2019
BookaTrack £325 BOOK
Be first to book!
60 places

GP Circuit, Open pit lane, 98dB
Fri 2 August 2019
BookaTrack £325 BOOK
55 places

Silverstone:

Thursday 11 April* Open Pit Lane Grand Prix Circuit £419

Monday 20th May Open Pit Lane Grand Prix Circuit £469

Monday 3 June Open Pit Lane Grand Prix Circuit £469

Monday 22 July* Open Pit Lane Grand Prix Circuit £469

Thursday 8 August Open Pit Lane Grand Prix Circuit £469

If those interested can list which ones you can do, we can then decide based on the event with the highest availability of people?

I can do any of them so no issue for me.

Cheers
