I was looking forward to John's list. As I suspected, it's impressive and annoying in equal measure!

Mine:

Silverstone (driven, all three circuits and spectated)
Oulton Park (driven long circuit and spectated)
Castle Combe (pillion ride with John Reynolds)
Donington (driven in the pissing rain, twice out of two chances!)
Hethel (driven)
Prescott (driven)
Brands Hatch (driven and spectated)
Lydden Hill (spectated)
Santa Pod (spectated)
Brooklands (stood on the banking with my jaw on the floor)
Monaco

Ones that might not really count:
Chobham
Bruntingthorpe
Millbrook Proving Ground

I'm sure there's more, but I'm currently nursing a two-day, all weekend-drinking hangover, so my memory is not the sharpest.

Also, I'm planning on adding Le Mans and the IOM TT to that list next year.
