Heya,
I know this seems a bit stupid, but do any companies offer Trackdays for people on a CBT? I'm only 20, and cant be bothered to do my test until next year. I'll do my DAS then, but in the meantime, I would like to see what I can get from my 125 and feel like throwing round Brands Hatch for a day...
Any advice?
J

Not any I've seen.

With regards to Brands Hatch, the owner of the track (Motorsport Vision) require a full derestricted licence for its circuits.

Looks like your going to have to wait until next year.

Basically, no.

Do your test, it's /soo/ worth it Smile.

Also, just noticed you've got a (heavy) 4 stroke 125 - even at Lydden I would be a bit worried about taking it out with a random selection of other riders.

The speed you are going is likely to be massively different to others as you've got a pretty slow bike, not nice for you or the other rider when they realise you're suddenly getting close to you /very/ quickly.
