Guest Posted March 31, 2014 Share Posted March 31, 2014 Hi All. I have had my 7 now for several weeks and would like to take it to a track and get some driving guidance (riding shotgun and then trying it myself) so that I can enjoy it more on the road and better understand the handling and limits (responsibly of course). I am in North Yorkshire. The car doesn't have any FIA set up at all and I would prefer not to have to make any changes for the limited times that I intend to take to the track. Any ideas please?

TomB Posted March 31, 2014 Share Posted March 31, 2014 Airfield track day at Elvington, south east of York sounds like it could be a good place to start. Have a look through the websites of the main track day organisers like Bookatrack and Javelin. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Member Jonathan Kay Posted March 31, 2014 Member Share Posted March 31, 2014 I can't tell how much you know already. Do you know about the ways that track days are often organised: "open pit lane" and "sessions"? Preparation of most 7s for a trackday is very simple and obvious. There's lots in the archives on first trackdays: I suggest you have a look round and come back with specific questions. The instructors have seen it all before: don't worry about that. :-) Jonathan Edited by - Jonathan Kay on 31 Mar 2014 16:41:18 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
A10ROX Posted March 31, 2014 Share Posted March 31, 2014 Croft is close to you and a good circuit Great for novice and even better for those more experienced The benefit is that it is flat, you have great visibility through the corners and it it a mature circuit Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
richy Posted March 31, 2014 Share Posted March 31, 2014 Beware. Once you've tried it you'll be looking for an FIA Roll-bar! Richy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
