It’s been an
interesting year, it being our 10th anniversary in July. The company was formed in July 2002 out of a
bright idea to run track days the way we’d like them run if we were a customer. That meant we wanted open pit lane, no queues
to get on circuit, and a good mix of cars and enthusiasts. We’ve pretty much achieved that and the feedback
we get says we are running good quality track days too.
We held our 10th anniversary track day at Castle Combe, our home circuit, on 9th July. We were blessed with good weather and a full day and even had a birthday cake to share with everyone.
Here's the team. From left to right, Tim, John, Rosemary, David, Mari and Peter
Castle Combe continued to work well for us with most days there full well in advance. Oulton Park and Cadwell were not so good to us this year with our events not running full. We think the reason was too many operators chasing too few customers at unsustainably low prices.
New this year was Donington. A super circuit and it worked well being full on both occassions we ran there. We'll be running again there with more events in 2013.
So looking forward to next year. Here's our provisional calendar. We've started to add dates on the website and more will go on as the dates below become fully confirmed. We're hoping to add more Donington events as well.
