It's worth doing at least one SV race @ £25 as you get the extra qualifying session as well.

So you could do DD, SV and SoT for £160-£170 (not checked Cadwell entry fee) and get 3 qualifying sessions and 4 races (1 each of SV & SoT). That's better value isn't it.



Oh, I wouldn't bother with wets, coz you'll still get your arse kicked either way. Unless you were feeling flush

I found the track time at dony and snet really useful as you get your head in gear far better if you have some untimed practice as well
I managed to harry the tail enders as they braked too much into the corners, and even had a passing game with one bloke at snet.
In the wet at dony it was a bit more worrying tho cos they all had better rubber than me
As dom says £25 for a race + qualy is great value - and at snet it allowed me to see if I could better my dd qualy times - which I did, and that gave me a lot more confidence for our race, leading to my best ever dd result.
