Think its more to do with the fact that, ignoring the cost of land purchase, you would never get permission to build something like a track on it. The airfields are already there and they constantly struggle against environmental complaints of various forms including noise etc. Also don't forget need for marshalling, safety etc which are involved in the cost of any organised trackday ... all mounts up and I imagine with the wrong crowd the whole thing can be more hassle than its worth

Re: Bargain trackday and Brisky meet anyone

Bruntingthorpe full circuit is a good circuit, very fast (i saw 120 on a test drive), and has the possibility to be quite challenging i would say, lots of run off so even if you get it a bit wrong it should still be all good. just stay away from where they keep the wagons.

I would love another go at driving the circuit, because last time i was in an audi S2 that i was thinking about buying, in the pitch black and i couldnt see where the track went or, where the edge of the circuit was (the lights on them are notoriously crap).

Hope you have a good day, i cant come as im having a weekend in with the new girlfriend. Hopefully will be going to the GTI international there.

Looks like I won't be going to this after all as my suspension hasn't been built yet so will not be on in time.

Is your car just hovering in mid-air at the moment then Des?
