So..... without having to travel the length of the country are there any tracks within say a 90 minute one way trip that I can freely practice on?

Failing that, do any of the midlands tracks have any race meetings on? I would prefer not to race to be honest, simply as I have never driven the B44.1 a yard yet and havent raced for nearly 20 years so am going to be seriously rusty and have no clue on how the car will handle or set ups.

As a result I am thinking racing may just tempt me to push too hard and stack the car!!

But, I am going to have to take the plunge and race soon, I would just prefer a little practice time first!

If there is anywhere suitable then suggestions will be greatly appreciated!
Broxtowe (5 mins from J26 of M1) race on a Friday night - usually someone there from 5pm-ish. Check in the Broxtowe forum for further details.

NDOR (3 mins from J26 of M1) race Thursday nights - http://www.oople.com/forums/showthre...569#post521569.

Coventry race on a Thursday night and if you are a member there, you can practice on the track pretty much whenever you like - for free!!!
