First off, its a video, so moved.

The track is flat as u can see....

 

and its just a round circle kind of thing with cones.

And? Am I missing something?

[shawdreamer]

with dan on this one...........evidently youve never participated on a handling course on a race day..... its got bugger all to do with the surfcae conditions, its all about your cars handling through a series of bends set at alternating degrees with the use of cones as markers, some people actually find the cars handling to be of great deal more concern than how great a wattage their stereo produces or how fast it my burn through a set of tyres on a handbrake burnout......insanity isnt it???

^^ Sumed up nicely.

 

One thing people forget is that a track day is not a motorsport event. They are not for spectators. They are for the drivers to go out and enjoy their cars safely while still seeing what they can do.

 

As long as the drivers are enjoying themselves, nothing else matters. The track may be small and not exactly race series quality, but i am sure that they dont mind.

I have actaully done a few.

 

At at £75 for half a day on that track which is about 1mile round its pants compared the to tracks in the uk.
