DONINGTON PARK GP CICUIT £155 8/12/24. Open pitlane

Post by Conan »

Rare chance to drive the iconic GP circuit which includes the Melbourne loop which is great, I have raced at this circuit in this format.
Garage and extra driver £40 each, I assume that is a garage share due to the size of them
Who’s up for it ? It would be nice to have a few of us there.

I can't see a track day on either of those dates on their calender. Who is the TDO?

If you go on to https://www.trackdays.co.uk/calendar/ca ... gJvE_D_BwE
This site shows :
Saturday 7th Dec National circuit OP £159
Sunday 8th Dec GP circuit OP £155
The Donington web site only shows the Saturday one https://www.donington-park.co.uk/calendar/trackdays/car

I am going to contact both sites to clarify the situation, I posted early to calculate interest knowing that the Saturday was there for backup.
It's someones birthday so I will do one of the days and probably do the museum as well which is fantastic if you've never been there before
There's a Radison Blue with pool close by :D
So are you guys in :?:

I'll look at going to this with my girlfriend. I've been before with the first rx8 which was 20 years ago and not the full GP circuit.
