    Hi Guys,

    Can someone please list out the 4 odd companies to book track days with?

    I wanted to go silverstone 5th of August - but is booked out (with my brother and friends)

    So checking if there are other dates available..

    I know Focused Events is one of them..

    Thanks

    Not keen on Focused Events..... No Limits or MSV are very good.

    you sure hottrax still do t/days? they stopped about 4 yrs ago.

    NL
    MSV (at msv tracks)
    focused events

    these are the main ones now,there are a few other smaller companies,but the above run most of the days.

    A positive vote for Focused Events, always had very good experiences with them, did a European trip to Almeria with them this year and it was brilliant.

    I have used MSv, No limits and focused events. I will personally not be using Focused ever again as they lied to me about why a TD was cancelled. If I was told the day was cancelled as they had not enough bookings I would have been pissed but understood.
    Instead they blamed it on Oulton park not allowing the TD. And that if I wanted to change my day from a Friday to Sat that I would have no issues with Oulton with noise issues because they changed the day. A little bemused about this I called Oulton who said they have not cancelled the day but it was Focused who cancelled the day and if I attended the Sat TD and did not pass the 98Db noise limit I would not be allowed on track, it was 105db on the Friday

    So basically the people at Focused Lied to me over the phone and would rather they change the day, lie, get my money and waste my day then be hoist

    But that's just my view. never had any issues with no limits who I have used a lot and have found them and MSv to be very professional

    I'm a big fan of NL. They're a professional outfit. Hottrax do trackdays but I think they concentrate more on the racing now.

    Oh, also if you go on the Silverstone website there's a calendar of all activities and who runs them.

    + 1 about no limits can't really fault them for trackdays and also no limit racing very very good .

    Also Remal for your info


    Oulton park isn't 105db its a very strict 102db .:eek:

    as far as hottrax go,no they dont do trackdays from what i can see,like i said,they used to upto about 4 yrs ago,but then just concentrated on racing.they do have test days,but they aren't the best for a newcomer to t/days.

    I've only ever used No Limits and can't fault them at all. Always found them to be approachable and helpful on site too.
