Will be in Paris so no...but do love Donington. You will def have fun. £110 sounds good to. I'm of to Gooswood on the 26th and thats £180 but only 25 cars.

It's a sessioned day hence the lower price. I unusually just happen to be up that way that weekend, so thought i'd give Donny a go - my first UK track day!

All you need is car, drivers license and helmet.

Give it a go! :beer:

Might try and get there with our Ford Challange Race car but will see!
If not its only 40mins for me and will pop over!

Few passenger laps Glendog? :whistle:

[Andyk]

Great track Glendog and the Craner Curves are a real adrenaline rush... Enjoy.

I booked the 'novice' group as it's my first track day in the UK :eek:

Maybe i should have gone 'intermediate'! Oh well, should be fun being a tad faster than most in the group - just like being at the Ring, lol! :smt079

[DazBlackCSL]

Going to book myself up Mon :wink:

unless you drive like a girl i suggest you swap into the advanced group.

firstly coz the CSL is pretty quick round Donny and secondly Donny Trakzone days are reknown for having a few chavs joining in in , how can i say, valueless cars that get in yer way!!

Intermediate can be ok ..... but novice will be way too slow

[Andyk]

The chap who I bought the CSL from, who now has an Ultima has asked if I want to go to Donny on the 28th or 29th Dec so may be up for that.....If I haven't eaten too much turkey and added to much weight to the car with me in it.

[Bealo]

I should be back in the UK on the 28th Nov so i could well be up for this.

I'll let you know....

I'd better give them a ring to change group as i don't think i'm a girl - not last time i checked anyway! :hahaha:

[glendog74]

I'm now in the 'Intermediate' group. :thumbs:
