Rockingham 13th June?
Andy D - 5/5/09 at 02:55 PM

I got Bookatrack voucher at Xmas, have been looking at spending it on a Rockingham trackday.

Going through all the dates, the only one we're free to do, this side of September, is Saturday 13th June.

Unfortunately it's not the cheapest of venues, but I've done one day there, and really enjoyed the track.

Anyone else fancy it, or any other suggestions for a BAT day?

*If* Donnington are allowed to keep staging events..... The operators are being sued by the owners of the track for non-payment of rent, and their planning consent is about to be withdrawn as the owners aren't going to sign off the planning docs while they're owed rent...

Would be worth checking with BaT what their take on the situation is....

I think for the distance involved I'd rather do a whole day Paul, and to be honest, I've done a few of Donny's own (Trackzone) trackdays, and apart from the fact they're sessioned, at around £140 for a full day, they are good value.

As Vinny says, it may be worth keeping an eye on what's happening at Donington this year..

Yes,good point guys,I will email them and check,I will post my findings on here,so everyone else will know the situation

Still to add too these dates


Anglesey or Rockingham??

The only one on your list I'm booked into is Cadwell, July 6th. Croft could be a possibility I s'pose..

OK, I've taken the plunge. Just booked into Rockingham 13th June.

Anyone else coming to play? It's open pitlane, and a friendly 103db noise limit.

Any more for Rockingham? Myself, two other Westys, and loads of Caterhams are entered, should be a good day!
