Based in Stoke on Trent, Both Donington and Oulton are close and local.
First time out at oulton this november and absoluely loved it! Probably the favourite of the two!

Hoping to get a few days there this year in-between "adulting" :(

Had the car 4 years and currently sitting at a fairly decent spec!
Tempted to sell multiple times but i just know id Regret it instantly!

Bought my Clio June 2019 where it has already been on track with the previous owner. Done one trackday at pembrey later that year and haven't done one since! Based near Swansea, like someone else said it's a road car that goes on track.

  Clio RS 200
I bought a Clio 200 in April 2020 with my son. We are based in Essex.

We managed to do Lydden Hill in December 2020, then got out to Brands Hatch (Indy Circuit), Snetterton, Bedford and Lydden Hill in 2021. My closest track is probably Brands Hatch and has been my favourite so far.

The car is still evolving from a road car to track car. It looks very standard at the moment as work has been done on preventative maintenance like doing the bushes, ball joints, belts and brakes.

Gaz Golds are going on next and the car is booked in for a Gripper and a gearbox refresh in March. We have 5 track days booked for the first part of this year including Croft, Anglesey, Donnington, Snetterton and Brands Hatch. It might look a bit more like a track car by the end of the year with a half cage?

Based in Basingstoke. Dont really have a regular track now, historically it was Brands and Thruxton as they were my locals, now I try to get trackdays at venues im due to be racing at.
Ideally want to get to Croft before 1st race there in April but its so far away and there no current dates close to race, I may have to bite bullet and pay through nose to test on the day before.

Will probably do a Brands shake down in March, once new car is ready.

Old one looked like this:

Sadly then looked like this:

And being reshelled now in to this:

When clios aren't available I have been known to track more unusual vehicles.

Another one based just on the outskirts of Bristol so Castle Combe is my local.

The car was a long term project 'finished' in 2021 and has only just seen the track once for a shakedown in its new guise, it was a Cooksport day at Castle Combe so was perfect, plan to get a few trackdays in this year, maybe a couple at Combe and a couple elsewhere.

It is also 'road legal' and currently driven to the circuits, I really do need to sort my trailer license

Don't need a trailer license anymore ;)
Exactly - have you been under a rock!?! It made up 90% of convos on FB for past 3 months.

LOL.... No I haven't been under a rock, I have done my research and know what I need for the vehicle I want/need to tow with...
Pretty sure I had the convo with you Ben, but @loggyboy please feel free to tell me I am fine to tow on my current licence with a 5T plated sprinter.... just maybe in a different thread

Another Castle Combe regular. Live 15mins away from there. Mostly save the clio for racing and use my Dads Megane 225 Trophy for track days instead.
Have booked for this year
Combe x3
Thruxton
Anglesey

And hopefully a full season in CC Hot hatch with fresh engine built by AW Motoworls plus some other shiny bits :)

Been a fun year with this, sorted a few gearbox issues (and gained a Gripper Dif).

Based near Birmingham, Donington is my “local” but we’ve been to Snetterton, Cadwell, Blyton, Bedford and Oulton Park this year. Would like to tick off Brands Hatch and Croft next year.

Based in South Wales, regular track seems to be Donington at the moment. Favourite track is between Brands GP and Oulton.

172 cup, not a massive spec but plenty enough for a good day of fun.

The eagle eyed will spot the odd disabled sticker on the cars. I’d like to say they’re there for show, but they’re not 😂 though they definitely freak people out and start a lot of conversations!

My 182, I'm sure many have seen it. I don't think I'm that great and could definitely improve but I've had plenty of people tell me I'm quick, so I must be doing something right.

My local is Oulton but Cadwell is my second home. I still need to revisit Spa to put some demons to rest, dunno how many days I'll get to do in 2024 as I'm getting married and money will be spent on that 😅

Picture of me and my rainbow helmet 🏳️‍🌈 so you always know when I'm driving (share the car with my parents, yes, my Mum and Dad occasionally drive too).

Thought I’d pop my 182 in this thread as it will be going on track one day when I get my s**t sorted out.
@Joah old car but now has the turbo’d engine out of my cup in it.
Just have a few jobs to do and it’ll be ready for an alternative track toy in ‘24!

This is my Ph1 172 that was meant for a restoration back to standard to use daily but ended up being a bit of a track car…whoops.
Was based in Gloucestershire so have done Castle Combe a lot as well as Llandow over the years. Took this around Donington Park the other year too.
IMG_8620.jpeg

Now has ITBs. Not been on track with it yet since fitting, very much excited for.

Now live up in North Wales. Will be going to Anglesey and as I work in Manchester see if there are any evening/half day sessions at Oulton Park.

I've not seen any half days at Oulton advertised since I started doing trackdays in '21, seen them listd for Cadwell etc.

My new car which I bought a few months back after flogging the old one.

IMG_1622.jpeg
IMG_1623.jpeg


I’ve been squirrelling away parts to convert it for circuit use as it’s previously been dancing in Hillclimbing Championships.

IMG_1626.jpeg


It hasn’t been fully stripped out like my old one, which is something I prefer, and has a tasty motor in it.

Looking forward to getting back out in the spring.
