Website details are Here

Details
This is a fun and exciting day!
An activity day is where you bring your car for various driving activities.
The most common format is High speed bend, two circuits where the group of drivers are split into two to reduce queuing and then a sprint circuit for all at the end.
There is no in car coaching given on the day but advice can be given if you require it
we are here to help and make it a great day for everyone.
Expect to meet other petrol heads having fun.

Instructions
Arrive before the start time of 9.00 am ideally 8.30 to prep your vehicle and sign on registration. There is a noise limit of 105 db at 3/4 revs stationary. there will be a group briefing for all drivers to attend at 9.00 am prompt where we explain the format of the day.
The cost will be £1,600 ÷ by 20 cars = £80 per car/person and payment is set up on DriveLimits Website =D>

This saves me the hassle of collecting money from all of you, as we know it's like getting blood out of a stone :lol:

If we get over subscribed, then can organise another day :thumright:

Never done one before but am interested.

Anyone got any overview of what they actually do? Carlimits old website is vague and the new website still doesn't say🤷‍♂️

The group days were less focused than the 4car days when carlimits ran them.

I remember doing the high speed turn where the aim is to prevent a Spin and complete the turn at the highest speed before crossing the imaginary wall line. This is done without TC on and often involves spinning.

We also done a timed circuit.

It's a great day and fun and I have probably forgotten a few bits that are done during the day.

The format may have changed

For anyone who is curious about what activities were done on the former Car Limits Activity days, here's my videos from the 2017 day. Forgive the giggling after I just about saved a 4 wheel drift on the short sprint course...



I also went back the following year and did a dedicated 4 man day, which was very worthwhile:
