So, what would my ideal track / driving experience be. I think it would be a 50 / 50 split. Morning of learning the circuit, getting some instruction if avail, getting the car set-up correct or running right. And then after lunch running a mini sprint series / or maybe time attack style.I really cant be bothered to go full MSA motorsport and its more just for the fun of it with like minded people. I’d probably not have categories etc and just do it for the crack.

No idea how much it would be to rent a circuit - probably a lot but you may be able to get one of the smaller less well known venues quite cheap.


All I can say is I believe that Lydden Hill was around £8000 a day to rent and that didn't include marshals...
