I've done Rockingham in C32AMG Estate. It was wet. They use about 1 1/2 sides of the Oval including the pit straight. It was wet, quite scary hitting the banked curve about 100 and then 120ish, down the pit startiaght, a couple of feet from the concrete wall (the paint marks fill you full of confidence!!), down into the chicane. (That caught out quite a few people, but OK there for run off.) Part of the track is quite narrow, not very long. It was worth doing once, don't know if I would do it again.

I've done the Johnny Herbert day there in the past, but this will be my first time in my own car.

It is definitely a unique experience to be gunning it round the oval with the instructor telling you to "aim for the wall".....gulp!

not going, but as said, worth doing once for the wall experience.

infield was quite entertaining, did it in november (damp) and a guy went off on the siteing lap

wouldn't do it again, but then its a long way away!

Have fun!
