They run a great day,very relaxed and loads of track time.
I'll see how tomorrow goes and I might try and get to this one
Fuckit...I'm off....Will I
I was at the one last Thursday,I am not sure if you've been to the recent track days lately but I can attest that it's not relaxed with loads of track time anymore. Red flags, poor driving standards are way more common place to the point that I stopped going to the regular track days. Sad to see this going this way as they used to be a lot of fun
Happens everywhere johnny with high end track days, same at any track including nurburgring, 800 sterling for a track day there a few years ago, myself and my brother went half's with cost but a great day with lovely cars and no dickheads with altezzas crashing every 5 minutes, I totally understand the comment about pricing out the normal joe soap but to be honest I have no problem paying a little extra for a well run event where everybody has good track manners,Trackdays.ie should have separate track days for track cars and road cars, they just don't mix for lots of reasons but instead they decided to price mormal people out of a safe track day with there social days,
I was at the one last Thursday,
To be fair there was 8 or 9 red flags. Very frustrating but of those were genuine breakdowns and cleared up fairly fast.
I normally do the jdmclassics days with mixed 20 mins grip to 20 mins drifting and you are under pressure to get out for each session.
Imo you are going to have red flags at most days.especially if there's 100+ cars.
Circuit social looks even more relaxed but I believe they don't want first timers or inexperienced track day goers so they can maximise driving time. With only 30 drivers they shouldn't have any red flags.
I genuinely think trackdays.ie are working hard to minimise red flags.
The red flag situation got ridiculous there for a long time , 1 every 10-15mins one day , felt like packing up and going home but in fairness to them they have tackled it head on and are putting repeat red flaggers in a sinbin for a 15-30mins or something and then if they cause another after that they are banned for the day .
The circuit social day is a great idea even if a bit dear , that would be ideal for a fast car so you can stretch its legs , a slower car is ok on the ordinary days as you can negotiate through traffic at a similar pace to most
Yeah,really enjoying itGreat bit of use you’re getting out of that
