European Trackdays

[LondonTom]

Hi All,

I'm wanting to book a trip for next summer and keen to do another TD in Europe. I've been to the ring before and not rushing back there anytime soon, did Spa last year which was awesome but before I book there again I'd been keen to hear of any other options I should be considering.

Cheers

Tom

portimao, portugal. though its a chuffing long way, but the track will be worth it!

Very occasionally the stars align and a Monza, Mugello, Imola triple header becomes possible. Fantastic circuits.

This. With an emphasis on Mugello and Imola. Brilliant tracks, both of them.
Try www.pistenclub.de - they do a double header in June/July (Sat/Sun) for Imola with Mugello usually on a weekday before or after.

I haven't been to either, but what about Zolder and Zandvoort?

[alicrozier]

Zolder is pretty good and Zandvoort awesome fun.

You've been spoiled by doing Spa though, not much will compare. Very difficult to get a day there but Bilster Berg is right up there on my top circuit list...

In France (without going too far), Le Mans Bugatti is worth doing.

Both are excellent circuits and neither need a lot of horsepower to really enjoy too. Very old school - if you like places like Brands GP you will be in your element.

I'm hoping to get to the eastern European trackdays if bookatrack run the package again next year

Good to know thanks, Lotus on Track go there (among others), so maybe one day....
Did Brands GP with Gold Track and loved it.

Looks like they are switching back to doing Jerez, Estoril and Portimao for 2017.

I agree, except since last year they apply a strict weight class policy meaning cars of vastly different weights can't drive together. So unless going with a one make type club not accessible any more.

Oh really. Few years since I went with the Radical and chums. There was a great mix of stuff on track. Including as I recall somme big Merc thing that cooked its brakes every lap.

Ah well. Shame.
