I'm in.
The NE7ER's have just hired out the Teesside Circuit for another trackday, and they are always a great laugh.
Cadwell would get my vote!

donnington is probably the fairest location, but the noise level sucks. Cadwell is great, but maybe a little unfair on any welsh/south west people who
want to come. Dont know why im suggesting mallory, as ive never been and would prefer cadwell myself, but its location makes it an option i guess.
I suppose we should make a shortlist and then maybe a vote.

rockingham brings back bad memories  The name makes me feel cold, must've been a bad day. The oval part is bloody fast (flat out in many cars
i guess) but the infield is very good. Nice pit garages too. Not sure they would let us camp though!?

I have found like most have already mentioned that the more up there ass smart tracks are the more legislations they have.. ie Donnington
Mallory take themselves quite OTT aswell

I would be up for most tracks, Ive heard that Cadwell doesnt have much run off and that may scare some people off. Especially if people have driven
quite a way in their locosts.
Cadwell or Mallory look favourites so far.
As for Beford, I work for Palmer Sport so will have a word about hiring out part of the circuit, they are always busy up there so wouldnt have much
choice of date.

Mallory would be nice and central for most I guess, Cadwell can be unforgiving on car and driver.
Mallory also = Fast.

Mallory Park is not the most interesting of circuits. I went there for a track afternoon last year because it was half the price of a full day.
It was enough fun but I worried about oil surge on the long right hand corner.
I'd go back to mallory but only if it was cheap.

only about half of cadwell has little run off, the other half is quite spacious. Its an awesome track really. Myself i wouldnt worry about the run
off; as i remember its only about 2 bends that could go badly wrong, other corners might have little run off but are also a little slower.
I dont like the sound of mallory being boring! Cadwell is a very 3d track, up and down.

Probably wise to consider cost as well. Oulton Park is going to be expensive - fact.
Cadwell Park is usually far more 'reasonable', as is Mallory - With Donington slotted somwhere in the middle.
Not sure of previous comment of Mallory being OTT legislation wise - I've been there at least six times before, and found it to be one of the
most 'easygoing' in the country. Whilst they specify noise limits, I have yet to see a decibel meter in action.
Which means some of you BEC boys can play too
Dont just build it.....make it!

i would suggest contacting jonny at bookatrack and see what he suggests. he has in the past run "closed" trackdays for a group of
people.
remeber if you are organising a locostbuilders only trackday direct with track you will need to sort insurance and st. johns ambulance. some tracks
might be able to sort this for you.
nobody has mentioned elvington yet? maybe a bit far north, but cheap and perfect for a beginner, but a bit boring for the more experienced.

Elvington was fun but I RUINED a set of tyres there. The "car park" is concrete not tarmack and the cost of replacement tyres makes it an
expensive day.

id perfer to keep away from airfields in general myself, you cant beat a proper circuit. Anyone going to bother starting a poll between cadwell,
mallory and a few others?

I also think Mallory is a bit boring.
Oil surge could kill a few engines if not baffled properly and it doesn't really inspire as a drivers circuit.
Summer's here!!!!
