No Limits. Really good
Focused Events my card was skimmed after using them, no one else had that card number.

Another NL vote, race with hottrax so would use those too as always been ok

Avoid FE if I can but TBh if I want to do one, like the DUK day, I wouldn't let them stop me

Me too (not the card).

Also easy track. They have fewer dates but smaller groups.

Another vote for No Limits. Very friendly (although have had one instructor who was a bit of a kno8). Suitable for Novices, as well as intermediates with free tuition and advice (some companies will charge you)

NL for me as well, MSV were a bit unorganised when I used them but that was a while ago. FE were ok and I've used them probally the most.

My last ones have all been MSV and they're fine - Cobby is an instructor so always have a chat with him!

Could have been, can't remember his name. Was on the UKMOC day at Malloy last year. Loads of 1st time track dayers, and the novice briefing was delivered as thought he really didn't want to be there... Plus was slating Ducati's ("I had one, it blew up" etc etc), despite knowing most of the day was taken by monster riders!

At lunch, a friend asked for tuition later that afternoon. He huffed, and puffed, and then asked another instructor to take him out!

Even so, all the other no limits guys are excellent, and I won't let him ruin my perception that they are a top class track day provider!

Cobby did my ACU test day. Nice bloke.

He spotted the DD bike in the morning and came over for a chat
