    I love donny is a great track to ride.
    However i'm not booking any trackdays till the weather starts making some decent steps for the better, i booked up loads of days early last year and most of them ended up being in shit weather so this year i'm leaving it till a bit closer the time.

    Be very careful of this as is a known fact that others will know where bikers stay in B&b and vans do get broken into .Donnington is no exception so make sure your van is secure and all leathers are with you in the digs .sorry to be negative but that's life.

    Yes it's a shame and in the excitement of a night out and a big day you forget others are also looking forward to it.

    they dont usually let you camp at donny anymore,you can park in the carpark though,but not very comfy is it....

    theres a very good campsite right next to the bottom paddock entrance though,toilets,powered pitches etc.

    might just join you on this day as i strarted to make some good progress there last yr and will be good to pick up where i left off early in the yr.

    well hope to meet a few of you here. Calender sounds a great idea Jimbo. As for booking closer to the time I hope to book this week. I am going to get some wets So it does not matter to much over the summer what the weather is like. Plus my tyres are pretty much track only AKA crap in the dry so would need them

    I've not been on track at Donny and will be booking novices as my mate i'm going with has only been on 1 track day. And it get's you used to the track. I'm just going out for fun and no lap times.
