Default Rockingham, any good?

Hi All,
I'm thinking of a track day at Rockingham as it's not far from me, but Iv nor heard much about the place. Is it worth a day out there or should I go else where?
Thanks, Richard

Track days are always fun. But the biggest thing to remember is the car your racing you also got to drive home. I no people that have lost control and gone backwards into tyre walls then not only have they got to get home he some how and recover the car but also got to fix the daily run about :-( so just go carefull bud :-)

All tracks can be dangerous places rockingham is a pretty fun track to be honest I did a vauxhall power event there and was a brilliant day.

You've just got to watch the walls at the rock
