Looking to book my first Spa trackday..

Anyone used these guys before? The website is very basic with no T's & C's on the site.. and it seems I cannot pay by credit card online..

I'm quite keen on the date being a bank holiday and also the price..

So, if you've used them then let me know about your experience..

Probably cheaper to book direct and avoid the agent.

How do I find out who is the TDO for the day?

Is http://www.spa-francorchamps.be the website of the circuit owners?

I believe they are a sister company of Track and Tour Events ( http://www.ttevents.co.uk/). More info and generally positive feedback about them in the Easytrack thread, if you can be bothered wade through some of the other crap to find it.

Mitsubishi Lancer Register day. Nurburgring UK/Nurburgring Experience/TTEvents/Easytrack/Marcus/Dino/Peter/Roger, etc just piggybacking and palming the day off as their own. Which is not strictly legal, is it?

Yeah, I've just seen it on the MLR..

I'll have a think about this, not sure I can be bothered with a one series make day in an 'inferior car' in their eyes..

Cheers for the heads up fella.. Nice to have some feedback, although tbh i'd still be uncomfortable with booking without credit card protection. The site isnt even registered as a limited company.

Not strictly legal as in there's a law against it? Really? laugh

How is it any different to me booking a TD at Spa through Lotus on Track and then finding out it's actually a Circuit-Days event, or perhaps an "Exclusive car only track day at the Nurburgring" from Circuit-Days that makes no mention of the fact that it's actually a Destination Nurburgring event?

Only at the level of hypocrisy displayed by some on this forum.
