TopCats have 2 places left at Donington on the 29th July. The Day operates from 9/9.30am until 5/5.30pm with 1 hour for lunch, so maximum driving time. £250.00+VAT per head based on 4 drivers sharing equally. All inclusive day (ie. car hire, instruction with intercom radio, insurance, track fees, team support)

Some of usual questions answered:

If car is damaged by someone coming off its end of day.
If it breaks in morning with mechanical failure we will organise another free day.
If it breaks late afternoon then that's that. (So far 20 trackdays with all the cars and not had one break but people have to remember they are performance cars and one day we will get a breakage)

Car: Caterham 7 'K' Series 1.4, still race specification and on race tyres - superb handling and condition.

To take your car on a track day will cost a lot more, given your track day fee, your track day insurance, petrol, wear on brakes/tyres etc. + about a £1 per min for instruction. The cost isn't as high as you think given all of the above !! URL and contact details can be got by e-mailing me via my profile.

I can get the BookaTrack Superlight at Donnington for the use of 2 drivers for £600 total!


And you point is.... at £293.75 per driver inc. VAT the 4 drivers totals £1,175.00 still cheaper than the £1,200 is would cost for 4 drivers at the price you quote.

4 drivers in either car would get the same track time so the TopCats option works out cheaper anyway you cut it

If you mean to point out that this is good value then thanks otherwise WTF?....

My last outing in the M5 cost over £700 as I had to replace two tyres (£350), insurance (£150), track day (£150), fuel (£100) - though I did do 160 track miles.


OH my gawd !!!!!!!!! £700 though from the look of some of the pics on your site it looks like you'd have one big on your face at the end of it all !!

Anyone up for the last 2 places? as m-five says it's a hell of a lot cheaper than hammering your own car and as jeremyc says you'll get instruction/encouragement from Charlotte Osborn on the day - Charlotte has just come from a 2nd place finish at the Wilhire 9hr, her fastest lap less than 2 10ths off the fastest lap of the race.

Drop me a mail via my profile for any more info, happy to answer any Q's you might have.....
