Trackday for the larger gentleman

[dubway]

Hi All,

I'm looking at trackdays and think I am going to need to go on a diet and lose some height before I contemplate the majority of them!! Does anybody know of any tracks that do experiences in anything "supercar"esque that I would be able to partake in? I am about 6ft 5 and 23 stones.

Thanks all

You would get in an Atom - try contacting Dawsey at Atomhire

Or maybe not. I'm 6'3" and 19 stone and struggle with an Atom. Much depends on the width of your hips, rather than your weight, per se. I cannot get into the vast majority of racing seats, because I find myself sat on top of the upturned edges of the seat squab rather than between them. The only "production" car I've ever had this problem with was a Pug GTi.

I also have problems with leg length in Caterfields, in that I cannot get my feet off the pedals because my knees clash with the steering wheel.

There are a number of 20 stone plus Atom owners and some at 6 foot 5 and above - OP speak with Dawsey he runs 3 and knows the big chaps I am thinking about - you have no chance of getting in a crate
