Foreign Trackdays

Anyone got any recommendations for companies etc for these?

Having had a run of bad luck getting to trackdays this year I need to get some foreign days sorted as I am way down on track-time this year.

Been looking at tracksense who seem pretty good from their site, but hey... it's their site so who knows. Then there's the usual Focused Events, 100%, No Limits etc

Anyone got any booked already?

Any comments which might help decide? or anything I should be aware of before taking a leap into the unknown...

4 days on track all flights/transfers, bike transport, 5* accomodation...............you know it makes sense!

Lily spoke to them yesterday now £699, plus bike pickup is miles away - Norfolk, so we'd need a van to drop off and collect, so the price just keeps going up and up...

still cheaper than focussed who wanted £900 for 3 days, although you got a set of £200 pirellis = £700 for 3 days......

and a mate whos done jerez twice says its a better hotel with 100%

The fact is you have to get your bike somewhere or pay for pick up for all of the operators.......... If you were serious, and as im going if you got your bikes here to Npton, we could put them all in one van to diss? And if the flights are from stanstead and you dont want to pay for the change. get here and 4 of us could go in one car, leave your car here??

PS the guy in Diss doing the transport is the same used by focus aswell.

Shame it's just after TA5, won;t be able to get the bike over there in time.

FWIW, JPM, myself, Rattler, Jon, Pedro and V2Pete all did Cartagena with 100% in Feb/Mar and they were pretty good although the accom was not the best I've been in. Imagine the boyz will want to do another early next year or later this year so I'll keep you posted. I'm definately up for one later in the year
