Yeah I'm still undecided.

I'm not sure how much longer I'll have the chim, so want to make sure I do at least another trackday before putting it up for sale!

Ah, nearly sold mine recently too. Going to keep it now & sell the A4. Means using it as a daily but it's better than selling. thumbup

That's good news!

I'd love to use mine as a daily, but not really practical for me. Don't think it would go down to well when visiting clients either unfortunately.

We'll see, I may end up keeping it!

Yep that was me.

Had a good day out. It was a bit slippery to begin with (mixtures of damp track and cold tyres!) but after an hour or so it improved.

Some pretty quick cars out there today.

Looks like you guys had fun on Saturday! I hope to be able to make the next one, assuming the Caterham is all fixed up and running in time. First time I've had a chance to get it on a track.

Yeah, years ago though. It was good, but it can be very cold, especially with weather as it is now.

Yeah they're great fun!

I've only been on the single-engined karts, but the track is nice and varied and it's well marshalled.

Much more fun than indoor karting!

I'm tempted by Llandow on 30th March, but having done it a lot lately, I'm looking for similar good value track days nearish to Cardiff/Bristol.

Tempted by Castle Combe but just found Hullavington or Keevil airfield car days run by TrackDays.co.uk? Price is slightly more than Llandow at £100, but still good value and should be larger, faster and more varied than Llandow, and nothing to hit which is nice, but the surface appears a bit worse.

I have watched a few youtube vids and they seem good fun, so if anyone can let me know if you have been on one or plan going sometime? I'm thinking March 15 or 16th.

Is one track better than the other?

Cheers, Chris

Just booked in on the 30th!

I've heard good things about Keevil. It's a shame Kemble Airfield don't do trackdays anymore. I had a great time there a few years ago!
