Title: Good Value all inclusive UK trackdays
Post by: TonyLanciaBeta on August 27, 2011, 09:36:15 PM
Good Value all inclusive UK trackdays

A few of you might know, earlier this year I was asked to take photos for a track day company, which also enabled me to get some use out of my Peugeot 306 Rallye on some of the top UK tracks  :D

It’s run by a chap called Dave Woodall, and offers an all inclusive package including:

-A whole day open pit lane track day
-Free garages (subject to availability) get there early
-Free photography (me)
-Free tuition by both A&S grade tutors
-Free snacks and drinks

I’ve tried a couple of different track day company’s, and can honestly say they offer real value for money, and are very easy to deal with.

If any members would like to book a day, Dave has agreed to give us further discount, please pm me for prices (does not have to be a Lancia) all cars welcome.


There are 3 remaining days this year

20th Oct Snetterton 300
25th Nov Oulton Park
9th   Dec Brands Hatch

With lots more planned for next year, hopefully including Spa or Nurburgring  :)

We had a great day, with perfect weather ;D

Thanks to Mark Goldsmith who made the long trip from Essex to Norfolk
He left home at 6am but had points burning out problems, thanks to Omicron who supplied new parts
which enabled Mark to enjoy the session after lunch.

Brands Hatch for our third and final trip of the year on Friday December 9th.

Brands Hatch, what can i say about a circuit that has been around in one way or another for 84 years.
We will be using the "Indy Circuit" which includes the splendid "Paddock Hill Bend" which is a long steep right hand turn just at the end of the fast"Brabham Straight".Also on the circuit are corners called Druids,McLaren and Clark Curve, which with names like that just go prove the history behind this superb motor racing circuit.

Brands Hatch is Located just 20 minutes from London and just of junction 3 of the M25 motorway.
