8th is ALOT different to 10th - it took me a while to get used to the 'smaller' stuff!
I would say come down to Slough but they got nothing going on until after the Olympics - i would say next best track for 8th would be Herts. At Herts you have the team driver on site and around to offer support with a good presence from the Kyosho, Agama, Durango and Associated camps - so always a helping about depending what you running!
