PistonHeads Track Days - The 2011 Calendar
PistonHeads and BookaTrack are proud to launch the 2011 series of track days solely for PHers
Earlier this year we told you about our 2011 association with the team at BookaTrack to provide PHers with a choice of PistonHeads track days throughout the year, and we're pleased to report that we now have our full calendar ready for launch.
As you can see, the chosen venues offer more variety and broader geographical locations than we've had in previous years, and to please the owners of noisier cars we have kept the db limits as high as possible at all venues.
The best news (for those of you who struggle to get on a track day even with the most relaxed noise regs) is the inclusion of an unsilenced day at Donington to kick things off!
All track events are full day, open pit lane sessions.
Tuesday 22 March - Donington Park (National Circuit) UNSILENCED - £295
Thursday 14 April - Silverstone Arena GP (105dB) £375
Thursday 26 May - Brands Hatch GP (101dB) £495
Saturday 18 June - Anglesey GP (105dB) £199
Friday 19 August - Castle Combe (100dB) £275
Thursday 15 September - Snetterton '300' Circuit (105dB) £250
For more information on the track events, or to book any of the sessions please visit the BookaTrack website to register or see here for the calendar. If you prefer, you can call them directly on 0843 208 4635.
PistonHeads and BookaTrack will also offer a track day membership package. If you are a committed track fanatic, joining us at every event will cost you in the region of £1900, but with membership the total season price is reduced to just £1395. This essentially means that you get two of the sessons for free - and there's nothing better than a free track day.
In addition, PH members will benefit from the availability of the BaT fleet of Caterham Superlights - ideal for anyone not wishing (or not able!) to track their own toys. These will be available to hire at all PH track events on a first come, first served basis. See the BaT website for more details.
For full terms and conditions relating to PH track days, see here.
For more information, please call: 0843 208 4635
We look forward to seeing you later on this year.
What about slow car only sessions? 150bhp/ton maximum?

To date, that model has served us well. 'True' open pitlane events at Castle Combe were unheard of until we tried them a couple of years ago. Yes, you will pay more, but you are guaranteed to be able to get out on track whenever you want - with no queues. Not everyone sees the benefit in that but nor do we wish to appeal to 75% of the market as we simply don't have the capacity to meet demand were that the case.
Our Brands GP pricing is in line with the other organisers events there and our Donington noisy date is excellent value for money compared to the competition.
I'm not going to focus on the prices any further, suffice to say that if 100% of PHers thought the days were cheap we'd need to organise several hundred events per year in order to satisfy demand.
Sarah and I would both like to re-iterate how delighted we are that PH chose BaT to organise their first full calendar of events and very much look forward to meeting as many of the PH regulars as possible this year.

I have done at least ten trackdays per year on average since 1997.. many of those with your goodselves & many more with other organisations. I have never seen anywhere near 100 cars at any one T/D in my experience.. Out of interest how many places are up for grabs at the Brands GP day?...

What makes a PH day £165 better? Do you pay for my fuel/tyres for the day as well?
Genuine question by the way, as all the prices are much higher than i normally pay.

This year's choice of tracks is excellent; I have my own view on the prices but the 'proof of the pricing pudding' will be in the take-up.
