Favourite trackday track?

[samoht]

My FD is currently at Super7 for some basic mods to let me take her out on track.  I\'ve previously taken my S13 to trackdays at Blyton, Cadwell Park & Brands Hatch, with Cadwell being very much my favourite.

So, out of the UK tracks that you have driven on (either trackdays or driving experience days), which is your single favourite in terms of driving enjoyment?

The board is limited to max 10 choices, so to vote for a track alphabetically subsequent to G, head over to this thread instead http://mazdarotaryclub.com/forums/showthread.php?t=79110 .

ADMIN EDIT: I\'ve now merged the two separate trackday polls into one BUT the merge process lost the votes on the 2nd thread; Knockhill onwards. If you voted for one of these tracks, please try voting again -sorry :o .

If you know of any tracks that are hosting trackdays this year that I\'ve not listed, please feel free to comment.

Also, if there are tracks you\'ve not driven but want to, or if you want to explain why your favourite track was such fun, then post below :-)

I like Castle Combe, it really rewards being brave.  But I also like Brands for the same sort of reason.  Goodwood is hard to get to with a rotary due to draconian noise regulations although it really gives you an appreciation of how life threatening 60s racing was.

Sntterton is fun and it\'s only 25 miles from me!  Mallory is a bit of a laugh too.

Love Cadwell for the gradient changes and can feel very rewarding.

I loved Cadwell Park.  I think the fact that you can\'t see the whole track from any one point, the way it thus unfolds in front of you as you drive it, like road driving, makes it feel much more special.  I love the way each corner is different from the last, and how they combine together, one corner flowing into the next which just adds to the challenge - and the satisfaction when you get it right.  I just wish it wasn\'t so far away !

Oulton is awesome too, very technical in many places. A lot of fun too !

Oulton is on my to-do list.

Thruxton is good track, very quick, i did it on my bike years back but you would be lucky to get on there these days, very few days and 89db or lower if memory serves me right. Just goes to show what can be done by local home owners! Also did Mallory on my bike and found it very boring. Thruxton is ok, a bit on or off i found, without a nice series of bends to execute.

Surprised to see you havent got Brands or Donnington on there, full gp circuits of both are on my to do list this year. Spa too, i hear that is just awesome.

Just seen the first page, will be registering a vote on that page

No Oulton and Snetterton

Personaly I do not have a favorite as each present there own problems to master and once done any and all can become a favorite in there own way .

I can tell you everyones least favorite track, Mallory when we went there nobody wanted to go back!,

Personally I enjoyed the long bend after the main straight at Mallory as this presented its own unique challenge  with changes of direction required through the corner to get the exit correct.

LOL I am a 1 trick pony!!!! Only ever drove Castle Combe and few local airfield circuits and landow was my first ever years ago!...never needed to broaden my horizons as i love going round Combe it was allot faster years ago with out the chicanes....

Clive - the board only allows a max of 10 poll options, so I was forced to split tracks in the second half of the alphabet into a separate thread:

(any chance of increasing the max number of options?)

[samoht]

Yeah, go over here to vote for Brands or Donington.

BTW there are very few full circuit trackdays at Brands, they\'re not allowed to use the far part of the circuit much, since some idiot built a housing estate right by it.  Also tends to be pricey when the chance does come up.  But I agree I\'d be interested in a full-circuit trackday there.

Snetterton 300 due to the nice long straight(s), as its the only track I can get some use of the higher speeds my FD delivers, plus it has some interesting corners.
 
But I also love Cadwell, due to the twists and elevation changes.
