cadwell is awsome, ive both trackdayed there and raced. just be carefull untill your tyres are warm and untill you have the hang of it. there are a few places that have minimal run off so its not that forgiving. be carefull near the cafe complex under the trees as it is always greasy and slippery no matter what the weather is.

I'm there on Sunday, take a ride over if your doing nothing else, more than happy to take you out for a few laps help you get to know the circuit.

Probably the best circuit in the UK as everything.

Try and get airborne!!

thanks for the anti crash tips

there is 4 of us and last time we did something similar was castle combe.

15 min slots type thing, no drifting, no going on the grass, no racing each other, no running the signs over etc... which we did.

IIRC a guy in the village was paralysed there a few years back on a bike.

Just make sure the car's pointing the same way it travelling when you do. Don't ask how I know.

Correct, go buy one and make me jealous (couldnt justify the extra £2k over a striker, but bet I will regret it when ive finished it!)

just got back.

it was excellent.

spun off many times!, took some getting used to.

half a dozen seven based cars, a nice GBS Zero, with a fancy aero device on the back.
