Donnington (wicked track) - Track day 27th of Feb Special low prices before march.

I'm going up there, with my dad. Gonna go in my car (went to goodwood in his car last weekend) - a few people off of PGAC are going too.

It's £95 for the day for car with a driver. £20 gets anyone a driver/passenger pass. (So £20 to let your mate drive/passenger your car or anyone elses)

£95 gets you 6 x 20 minute sessions on track. Drivers are grouped in to novice, intermediate and expert and the groups rotate. So you get 20 minutes on track then a 40 minute wait. During those 40 minutes you can scab passenger rides though! \o/ 98db limit (proper loud).


Anyone interested??? I hope the weather is good!


To book call Caroline on 01332 819 503 (Donnington Park Bookings Number)

Go on - would be cool to see how some of those XE corsa's fair

No way my car would pass a 98db sound test. Need at least 2 boxes on. Or run past the sound meter down the straight at 0psi LOL.

When my car is back I deffo want to do some track days, just finding ones I can get on!

Suppose could get a bung made? But back box is not rould, its oval, qould that make it harder to get one?

How much does a bung restrict performance?

I'm going to a track day at castle combe in april - with PGAC...

Goodwood was good - especially in a RWD car. that first corner is adverse camber - so gets a bit hairy... but its all good fun.

Brad - you need a clean license for a racing license - but I haven't been officially banned - yet! so I'm making most of it while I can.
