Default Track days - who to use ?

I used to do about 20 track days a year on my R1 and got to know a lot of the guys running the days etc, but none of them do car days.

Who is recommended for car track days and are there any good ones that offer some tuition to boot ?

Saw Matt Neal has something at donnington - anyone been.

I do not want something to commercialised where you dont get much for your money etc.

chrs, Malc

We have free tuition available at Brands

The SIDC are working with Track Masters aka Stormy and TerryB & MLR this year to give members a wide variety of track day venues throughout the year

ALL OFFER FREE TUITION BY QUALIFIED INSTRUCTORS

Yeah I saw this one, but cannot make the date so wanted to book something up independantly and then offer up to see if anyone wanted to join.

I've now secured an instrcutor who does private freelance and will work with me in the car all day, so now just need a venue and event organiser. It's looking like Easytrack and Brands on the 18th Feb.

I just want to make sure I'm not letting myself in for getting t-boned by Teenage Chav in Nova etc. I dont mind binning it myself, but would be pi$$ed if I get taken out by a wannebee hero trying to take on the scoob.

Thoughts ?

Chrs Tiny, I did have a look through but am too impatient to wait until May for a decent track, so I'm going to book up 18th Feb, Brands, with Easytrack. If anyone fancies it, let me know.
