Never been before either, but I'm gonna go. Cheapest track time you'll ever get at Silverstone..!

Little bit of a chav-fest but generally good day apparently.

been a few years on the trot, after last year, prob never again. but give it a try. Just try and arrive early enough not to be stuck in an hour long traffic jam with every snot nosed monkey belting out some euro trash chipmunk music thats loud enough to make your ears bleed.

Have fun

i'm not bothered about the track time tbh, i've done silverstone loads of times on the bike cool

i know what you are saying about "chavie" but i've never been so i'm open minded, it's a petrolhead day out for me, i think i'm going to enjoy it wink

I've been the last few years and it's not a bad show. This year i'm planning on taking the car on the track, which i've never done before, so i'm quite looking forward to it.

I think I have pics of your car at Castle Combe from an action day. Are you going to Eurofest ?

went last year, for the money its one of t he better shows you get to go. Theres plenty to do and the track times etc are not expensive. Better then paying £20 and goin to the auto tuner show at brands strat of August, that was a waste of time and money!!!!

I'll be there with the Atom. If any PH'ers are passing the Supercar Paddock, feel free to give me a shove! I believe, being part of the supercar group, I'll be on track around lunch time and then on the 0-60 pitch later on.

Any other PH'ers on show????

It's now been many years since I've been to Trax, so will be interesting to compare the show from years ago to present day.
