I am planning to head down for one last outing this year I quite fancy
BaTs Rockingham 29th Oct 105db £199 and LoT at Cadwell 30th £75!
Never done either of the tracks and they could not be more different let me know if anyone is interested

Can't make either, but keep your wits about you at Cadwell - the best track I've driven, but she takes no prisoners!

Cadwell Park is great fun. Seriously good fun track, very fast and flowing. I'm meant to be working that day but might try and jiggle my shifts to make it.

Rockingham is a soul less track in the extreme. Did a day on the international long circuit (same one to be used on the BaT day). It was sessioned, so amounted to about 2 hours track time, but to be honest, that was more than enough for me. Obviously its a big track, and the little lotus's feels lost on it, but it was just very plain and boring. IMHO, after the first 2 hours are past where you are still learning the circuit, you will be wanting to pack up and head off home.

Saying that, we wangled a free day on the handling circuit at rockingham and it was great fun, but only because you could really hoon.

Mondays are a mare mate.

The online company is major work on a Monday, and with the current season approaching it only gets busier.......pays for my engine replacements though

Interesting about Rockingham I had heard that there were some very nice fast corners

I am booked for both now think there are only 6 places left for the Cadwell day

Any thinking of going to either of these dates?
