doesnt have to be 100 car u can bring as many as u want, just if u get over a 100 cars ish there from the same group you can normally just have the track to yourselves. but either way you still get the same track time.

yh spa is a gd circuit indeed,well i say 100 car turn up and average the amount of cars on track is around 40 most of the time considering people come in every 10/20 mins to cool the breaks and have a drink etc.
Its an msv track and all the little tracks which we use for coporate events come together to create the GP circuit, which is around 3.6/3.7 miles long, awesome track. we had  track day last month and there was around 90 cars that turned up and there was plenty space on track.
Ring 07795435567 (adam foster) if there is a group of guys that want to organise one. If anybody if doing any tracks days at any other circuit in the uk and fancies a race instructor to get the most out of it please call this number aswell.
Will be uploading some pics and vids of my F2 test in december in valencia, hope u guys enjoy !

....VWR not open Saturdays and they don't remap on the premises AFAIK - Would be at Superchips at Buckingham but don't think they are open weekends either.

TTshop open Saturdays? Most such auto workshops aren't.

....A track day isn't a race - It's quite relaxed (sort of!) in comparison to eyeballs-out, no holds barred, bumper to bumper racing. In fact a circuit briefing will usually warn drivers absolutely NOT to race each other. I sound like an expert but all I've ever done is one full day at Spa (and can't wait to go to Spa again).

Either way, you would doubtless get a free passenger ride or two (unless it's charged extra).

Spectating at Bedford would be a bit dull imo - It's not exactly scenic!
