Good stuff. I love Cadwell Park, never done a track day but have done a few rallies in the past. Love to do a track day or two in the scooby.

30 minute taster session doent seem alot but good way to get some track time at minimal cost.

In some ways I regret buying a new hatch as until the manufacturers warranty has expired no way I am putting it on track (the engines seem too fragile) and I would rather IM pay if the pistons fail whilst the car is under warranty.

Will pop across with the camera next time I see a trackday advertised.

Cadwell Park is a fantastic circuit-your vid gives a really good view of it.
You doing any more circuits in near future?

Don't trail your brakes into the right hander at the entrance of Hall Bends. This makes the back end light on an adverse camber and is likely to spin the car. Second lap you can see back got loose. Adjust your speed before turning then accelerate through the right hander to keep the back planted then brake into the positive camber left hander, bit of a tap dance.

Stand and watch others by the cafe, and you can tell those that have had instruction and those that have not.

Do you have to wear helmets? If so is that included in the price?
