It does look awesome but out my price range at £800 for the day (if it's still that?)

From the application form it looks like £644.

Ive heard lots of great things about them and hope to do it one day. (when im feeling flush!!) ;-)

Looks like an expensive way of trying to be a big boy in a small pond to me! IMHO of course.

Compared to track day, it's not expensive. In your own car you'd use a set of tyres and pads as a minimum. Who knows how much the equivilent instructor costs would be. I don't get the fish/pond comment?

Never spent 644 on a track day. But i think the attraction would be a blast in the cars mentioned, depends how many laps you get in each. You know how it is when your just getting some real heat into the tyres and thats it over.
I think the sub-aqua comment is guided toward "pretending to be a racing driver" for the day. I dont think it would bother most.

I considered it, but it's effectively the thick end of a grand when you add in travel and accomodation.
