BMW Car Club trackday @ Donington

[sydown]

I'm glad to report you were wrong, it was a well organised day, a 15 minute briefing and 3 sighting laps is hardly excessive, if you can't deal with that then track days probably aren't for you. Instructors were included FOC and the guys from michelin were on hand to give advice. I spent all day overtaking (and being overtaken) and I didn't hear anyone moaning about it!! 98db was a potential issue but as it's drive by the race cars only managed 95db!!

Just going on the Silverstone experience where the briefing was much longer and they spent getting on for an hour on sighting laps... The instructors being free was certainly a decent benefit though.
