neilp9876 Posted October 11, 2010 Share Posted October 11, 2010 There's a track day at silverstone which costs £860, it's for 350bhp+ cars (no 4 seaters). I can't find out what you get for the money, what can they do for you that makes it cost that much?! Edit: it's sold out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Abz Posted October 11, 2010 Share Posted October 11, 2010 They are hoping only people with exotica turn up I assume! Maybe they wash your car & give you some fresh tyres when you finish? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ian W Posted October 11, 2010 Share Posted October 11, 2010 For that price I'd be looking into a Palmer (motorsport?) track day Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chazuk Posted October 11, 2010 Share Posted October 11, 2010 Its a toff's track day ,at that price they would only have to invite half the ammount of people a normal day would see. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AJI Posted October 12, 2010 Share Posted October 12, 2010 Silverstone are generally hugely overpriced compared to trackdays in the rest of the world. For £860 I'd be expecting a track prepared car to have for the day to drive around in as well as the track day itself. I get weekly emails from Silverstone about test session days and trackdays, every one of them is about twice the cost that I'd say it was value for....but this is just my own opinion.

That's the price they can get away with being a current F1 track in the UK I suppose. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dnk Posted October 12, 2010 Share Posted October 12, 2010 I did a trackday at Silverstone and it wasn't expensive (under £200), it was run by Callum Lockie (gold track) He jumped in with me for free as well and showed me a few tips, top bloke Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snooze Posted October 12, 2010 Share Posted October 12, 2010 My brother owns a company which does track days with fully prep'd and crewed Radicals and single-seaters for around that money. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
