Hi Daniel and welcome to MGoT. :) I hope that you're looking forward to the day at North Weald, you'll have a great time there and will then be well set up for a trackday. Have you considered taking a place at Donington (the new home of F1)? We are running 2 sessions there, and 1 of them will be for less experienced drivers. We have recently introduced a feature where we allocate paddock space specifically for novices and we partner up each of you with an experienced driver who will be on hand to assist you during the day and to generally make sure that all is well. We also give you an 'N" sticker for the back of your car so when you're out on circuit other drivers are aware of your status. Let me know if you have any questions. See you on track soon. :)

I have also done a few laps around that course in the past. Will it be simlilar at goodwood? or is it purely for the experienced?

Hi Dan Glad to see you have secumbed to the encouragement on .org. Yes, we're hoping to have a first timer's pit area at Goodwood. Its a fast circuit though, go steady. Would recommend you go for an early instructor session. North Weald will be good experience for the high speed bends. Fran has booked for NW so I'll be there too. Look forward to seeing you. Tim.

Cheers Tim, yea it was you that convinced me NW was the way forward before doing goodwood at the servicing day.
