Clown Posted August 20, 2013 Share Posted August 20, 2013 http://www.silversto...ack/track-club/ Track Taster Day - Sun 27 OctoberEver fancied taking your car on the circuit but didn’t know how or where to go? Our Track Taster Day gives you the opportunity to take part in one of our 30 minute taster sessions for only £39! Is anyone interested in doing this? I don't know if I'm going to be around for it but a few of the lads said they might be up for it. If we can get a bunch of us to get the same track time, it could be fun. Then we can dash off to a local pub afterwards for some food and drink and chat about how it went. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HaydnH Posted August 21, 2013 Share Posted August 21, 2013 30 minutes for £39 with other drivers who haven't done track days before? I think I'd prefer to pay for an open pit lane day where I'll get better value for money and probably be less likely to have someone drive in to me! I reckon Bedford is a pretty good track for first timers, nice long track so the cars are pretty spaced out and plenty of run off - having said that accidents can happen anywhere just like the Ginger Z that hit the pit wall last year.

If people havent driven on track before its a good shout, rather than as you put it be the muppit in the 350z on a experienced open day crashing into gt3 and other exotic, as you dont know how to drive on a track, dunno if this will be the same the MSV novice day i did everyone else was in mx5 and mr2 (and a mondeo with a halfords wing ) so being in the 350z meant i spent most of the time out on me own, and at 30 min session every hour was a good way to do it without getting over confident or boiling fluids Edited August 21, 2013 by StevoD Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brillomaster Posted August 21, 2013 Share Posted August 21, 2013 Silverstone would be awesome, but would rather do a full day... as HadynH mentioned Bedford would be a good starter track, theres a full open pit lane day on saturday 2nd November for £139 at the moment?

Clown Posted August 21, 2013 Author Share Posted August 21, 2013 I had great fun at the last one and there were no incidents. It was a nice easy way for me to drive very fast legally on a not very technical circuit Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jp606 Posted August 29, 2013 Share Posted August 29, 2013 Looking at booking two of these sessions on the 27th. Any other Zeds going? I can't decide whether to do the taster sessions first or just go straight in for the open pit day on 10th November. My only concern is the weather that tie of year. Any advice for someone that has never done a track day before? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
370Ad Posted August 29, 2013 Share Posted August 29, 2013 I will be booking a session on this last minute if the weather is looking good a week or so before. Silverstone is a great circuit! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jp606 Posted August 29, 2013 Share Posted August 29, 2013 I wanted to go on the Brands Hatch taster due to it being closer, but they only have weekdays and I've used all my holiday up at work! Silverstone is a 2 hour drive for me, but I really want to get out on the track. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Silverstone is a 2 hour drive for me, but I really want to get out on the track. I would have done BH too but on Holiday so Silverstone is the only one I can make before the weather really comes in. Won't be booking until I know its dry though. Wet track days are not great fun in a daily. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jp606 Posted August 29, 2013 Share Posted August 29, 2013 Hmm, there's actually a day at Goodwood on 21st September. Quite tempted to go to that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jp606 Posted September 7, 2013 Share Posted September 7, 2013 Ended up going for Goodwood on Saturday 9th November for an AM session. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
