    I'm up for it lads!
    Always fancied a track day but in the back of my mind I worry I'm gonna make myself look stupid, and a bit wary of smashing the bike.
    Time to suck it up I think!

    I did my only a first on my new blade in July. you won't make yourself look stupid, everyone is very helpful. And just take your time and you will never know why you have not done a TD before

    Mate, you will be shitting it big time right until you pull out of the put lane! Three laps in you'll be kicking yourself why you didn't do it sooner!!

    You WON'T look stupid in the slightest trust me. You will love every second of it...

    seriously though, most TDO's have really good instructors and there are a few of us more than happy to give peeps a hand should they need it.

    I'm sure you'll be fine wobbling round with the rest of us Matt.

    Too cold for me Tucker. Bike's gone in to hibernation until Feb/March time.

    Going back to the OP, im still waiting on easytrack confirming dates, as soon as they have we can look at dates/circuits and organise properly from there.

    Apologies for not reading all 12 pages, but to clarify the idea is we rent the whole track right? that would be AMAZEBALLS!! and im all over it.
    Brands Hatch GP is the dogs danglies.. However, i also have a tenuous link with the owner of Bedford Autodrome.. never gone there as i think its more car focused but could be a cheaper option. Also snetterton is a good bet and cheaper than most. Did it in February in the rain and it was still good fun.
    Let me know if you want any help.

    cheers

    Not renting a track, no. even at off season prices, your still talking 5k plus vat for the cheapest msv circuit.

    As for bedford, are you talking about johnathon palmer? its also atound 6k in off season.

    During the thread we discussed many circuits, i dont think theres even a handfull who would do brands indy, its just too short & boring!

    Snetterton is no cheaper than any of the other MSV circuits, in fact prices have risen this year since the re model.

    if i remember correctly, we have narrowed it down to Donington, Silverstone Mallory or Cadwell for the 1000RR TD.
