Have you tried Goodwood near Chichester in West Sussex?

Have been there a couple of times and its a great circuit, where they do the Festival of Speed each year.

I looking into trackday at Brands Hatch some time in the near future . It's an excellent circuit , I went to the Brands Hatch Racing School back in the mid 80's (Showing my age, me thinks) Only trouble was, they only had ( DARE I SAY ON THIS FORUM ) XR3is AND XR2is (SORRY) . Despite that it was excellent fun .really learned a lot from the instrutors . HIGHLY RECOMMENDED TO ANY ONE !! Also did a NOBLE M12 track day at the BEDFORD AUTODROME back in 2003 and then spent the rest of the time (open pit lane) mixing it with idiots in M3s that could not drive to save their lives ALSO EXCELLENT FUN >? . would be great to meet up with like minded DUB HEADS :smiley:
