We need to keep the price to a realistic level so people who are not trackday addicts will come along and not have to risk too much money.
For me there is a huge difference between spending £140 and £90 on a trackday (ignoring travel, accomodation etc).

That means Cadwell or Mallory.

Lydden is nice, well at least for the smaller bikes!

(and its not far from home )

Don't forget there will be an Oulton date in 2006 that I am organising with No Limits and the DSC, hopefully to be just before a Oulton DD round (if there is such a thing) which will obviously give the DD boys a bit of a look-see

Mallory is a good idea Paul. Very "central" too.

I agree with the cost aspect. If there had been camping at Brands I might have considered it, but even with the reduction in price once you add in travelling and an overnight stay in a hotel it's a £200 day out.

That said ... my aim for next year is to try some other cicuits. I got to know Cadwell very well this year, with 7 out of 8 track days there. Love the place, seems like home now! I reckon that by becoming familiar with a circuit I then could concentrate on understanding my riding ability (or lack of) and the bike's capabilities. Time now to go and apply it to other circuits.

The only one I am not keen to do is Snetterton - didn't like the circuit and also spent some time on my a**se there!

Oh, and I shall make sure I get to Oulton Park if there is an organised event there (provided I am not away on holiday or something like that).

MSV are changing the layout of Snetterton and I quite like what they are doing to be honest - don't write it off yet!

I can see me going there again next year

Also the scene of my best race result

Monty - just a plea, any chance you can get the date to 'tag' onto a w/end?
Cadwell on the Monday was great for us - likewise a Friday would too

Fanking you for taking comments on board

Brands, not the best geograpahical location and crap access via the M25 for anyone North of Harlow.
If the DSC day there was anything to go by it's not that popular with the membership.

Both Mallory and Cadwell have been full.

Snetterton is gonna get better layout wise but that isn't gonna make it any easier to get to.

Oulton, good circuit, good road links but its on the "wet" side of the country. Support the NW region day there.

Donningtion, good circuit, good road links, but pricey, no worse than brands, difficult to get a noisy day.

Mallory, not the most inspiring circuit, reasonable road links.

Croft, so far North you'll get a Nose bleed. Good road links, good circuit, as cheap as cadwell?

Just my 2cents worth in the unlikely event that anyone is interested.
