....Hi gill,
I'm not quite understanding your question - Are you asking me if I've thought about doing trackdays in the UK?
Yes, and based on passenger rides they don't appeal to me at all - Not enough features (mostly converted airfields) and also short laps. The Ring is much more like a road and I've always preferred that dynamic. The full circuit of Brands Hatch might appeal.
I'm off again to The Ring in a few weeks with Hurdy. Also it's good to get out of the UK.
no not at all its just that over the past 5 years or so the prices of laps at the ring has nearly doubled . ans there are so many clubs going over it makes the track very busy , and often closed due to smack ups . every time i have been over it costs me around £700 , laps , hotel, petrol , tunnel , etc etc .
for about £200 you can have a open pit day on most uk circuits and sleep in you own bed at night and have just as much fun .
last year i only managed to get 2 days in due to a slight issue with my mk1 but it was so much cheaper and just as much fun .

Converted airfields are rubbish, you need something with a challenge like Oulton, Cadwell, Donnington, Brands GP... Think of them as practice and the chance to improve your craft, meaning you'll get more out of things like the 'Ring.
The 'Ring is NO place to learn how your car handles, the road will never give you chance to explore the limit - trackdays along with being tremendous fun, are the safest and best responsible way to prepare yourself for getting the most out of your car elsewhere.
