Track day was today Finished at 8pm
There were a few Scoobies out there including a very nice WR1, an 01 STi and a Classic STi.
Didn't get a chance to talk to any of them but had a good chat with plenty of other people there. Turned out it was a Track Day/Test session with all sorts of race cars on track - F355's, Radicals, Caterham 7's etc...
Not too crowded but bar 1 or 2 slower cars mine was the slowest thing out there.
A few piccies if anyone is interested

Ignore the shots of my tyres - a little overheated after 3 x 25 laps

Here's a short in-car clip including my only near spin of the day - moving out of the way a little too much for a race spec F355 to pass, decided to come in for a bit after that.

Would love to know a bit more about the turbo'd Mk1 Golf that passed - very rapid machine even keeping up with the radicals. There's a couple of photos in the link above too.

I did an evening track day @ brands 2 years ago. That exact golf was there that day and it was impressive then. I'm sure I found out some info but I can't remember anything.
Was it your first track day?

Nope, I did a Novice day at Brands 2 years ago and have been to the Nurburgring twice (40 laps there).
Nurburgring is nothing like a normal race circuit though - found myself making all sorts of novice mistakes at Brands with my lines and braking points
