3rd August

A few of us do the Odiham days instead now.

OMCC.co.uk I think it is. The track is better layout, more grippy, no landing lights! Not sure how many, but some are doing 2 days at Cadwell with them next week too

j, you haven't missed it - beginning of August. I will get the details and email contact later this week and post it on this thread.

On balance I would say that the Odiham set-up is a bit better - but then again the Benson days were never supposed to be that serious. More a great introduction to track-days for not too much money and the opportunity to have a bit of a laugh in a novel environment.

The Odiham Cadwell days are this Wed and Thur, pretty sure that is all sold out though.

Andy 748 - are you going his week?

Its a good point about organisation, the OMCC ones start on time, keep the track open pretty well and generally do a good job. Still laid back rider skills day but tbh some of the guys area. Bit quicker and more racers

cheers for your replies - Benson should be a laugh!

Not sure where Odiham is but I can hear them going round Benson from the garden, so it's very close and cheap, nuff said :)
