Favourite trackday track?

[clive]

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

Just as well this thread wasn\'t what\'s your favorite corner

Wow, I could make one hell of a race track made up from various challenging parts of race circuits especially if I included corners like Paddock at Brands, Druids at Oulton, the right hander leading onto the straight at Lydden Hill, turn one at Las Vegas with 20 degree banking to barrel down into etc etc

Seriously though I will ask if the options list can be lengthened  
 :Thumbs-up

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 the forum says you\'ve already voted then plse PM me (or post up here) with details as it\'s possible the merging has transferred your vote for "option 3" on the original 2nd thread to "option 3" on this thread. I can correct the votes with magical admin powers...............I think Shaunwil voted for Oulton Park and the (not so) clever merging has transferred his vote to Cadwell :Giggle

I agree with Clive, every track has it\'s own character and challenges which means I enjoy them all, but if I had to chose one it would be Cadwell Park, with Oulton Park and Snetterton very close behind

... and also miles further away, with miles more time, money and appetite for risk required to do it justice.  So it\'s really a different kind of proposition to a UK trackday.

Feel free to start another thread on Continental trackdays, Spa is the other obvious one, but I\'ve heard people from the South East have found it worth going over to Abbeville.  Not sure if the legendary Zandvort does trackdays?

I would say Blyton is my favourite :yes
Doing Blyton again on Saturday 16th March :wiggle

I also enjoyed Blyton, Lancaster and Bunga-Bunga are good for feeling the slip build up at the rear, it\'s got a nice flow to it and there\'s not much to hit (!).  It\'s been nice to see it become more widely known and used over the last couple of years since the re-launch, too, with e.g. Evo doing their COTY there.

However, I\'m curious if you\'ve ever been to Cadwell, which is also in Leicestershire.  Having done both, the elevation changes literally elevate Cadwell to another plane of enjoyment, to me - getting wheel spin over the Mountain \'jump\' being just one example.

Cadwell\'s in Lincolnshire, but it\'s awesome!

[samoht]

I\'m an idiot, I meant they are both in Lincolnshire.  Doh! (only 35 miles apart)

Anyone know why Cadwell only do car track days on the weekend? All the weekday trackdays are for bikes.

[Grant Monkhouse]

Cars only on a weekend? That\'s probably the best time to do them, don\'t have to take time off work!!

I take the opposite view, I\'d rather do it on a weekday, it\'s less likely to be full and the hotels are cheaper the night before!

[Casey]

:confused::confused: There are plenty of weekday car trackdays at Cadwell. We\'ve always done them on a weekday as they are cheaper. In fact I\'m currently looking at Cadwell on Thursday, 30 May for the trackday list this year - THIS ONE, only £129 at the moment for early bookers :Laugh

EDIT: Just posted up a thread re Cadwell trackday in late May OVER HERE....

[marf]

Ah good stuff!

I was only looking on trackdays.co.uk . All the cadwell car days there are weekends.

Hopefully a weekday date in July will pop up. I\'ve two weeks off and am looking to do Bedford GT on the 15th, but if a Cadwell date pops up then I\'ll do that instead as I\'ve done BGT already.

Well, this is offtopic, but I live about 12miles from Ahvenisto racetrack. Its old trackand and maybe hardest to master. Maybe can compare to your Brands Hatch or Oulton park. Heres few clips. Hopefully it gives some idea of that tracks layout
