What is considered too slow for a track day?

[Stardus]

Seriously thinking about bringing my Honda S660 kei car to a twisty trackday in spring.

It's a 850kg MR with only about 80 hp or so at the hub.

I have took the car to Silverstone once for a short session, while it does feels massively underpowered but I think most typical budget track car will feel the same in a circuit like that.

I wonder would shorter circuit still suits it? For example, I didn't feel massively lacking in power at Oulton Park in my EP3 Type R.

There’s a go-cart track near Thruxton…..


I’ve done plenty of track days. One guy turned up in a 1.2 corsa and was still competitive. Because he was a great driver.

I would totally do a go-cart day in the S660... if only they will let me

I guess I'll go out and do it again! Silverstone on it wasn't that fun but it's just not suitable for it I think.

Sadly limited tyre selection will force me into warm dryer season for the S660, it's either horrible budget tyres or running NS2R. Anglesey would be amazing with the view!

Three sisters near Wigan is quite a tight twisty one, could be good for such a car. Then again it makes getting out of the way of others a bit tricky

Actually just did that on Monday. I was very suprised how well the car did, first time on track with the car and the lack of run off does make it quite interesting. There is proablably still at least 1 second to gain at the end of the day.
