Default Cadwell Track Day

I went to Cadwell on Wednesday for a track day. I've been to Teesside and Elvington before, but this track was amazing compared to them! I can't wait to go back.

I'm a rubbish driver, but could feel myself getting better throughout the day. As they say, practise makes perfect.

Will hopefully go to Croft in May as it's fairly close to me - can't wait.


My friend filmed in his Evo:

Evo is nearer 650.

Will definitely be going back

No, it is quite narrow to be honest! Makes it easier if you can't drive, as you have less room to get the incorrect line

You can walk anywhere you like around the track as far as I could see!

Great vid mate. I'm going for the second time in may, can't wait. I thought it was a great track, the narrow twisty course is what makes it and a good length too.

I don't think you can get around the hole track. The guys I was with could only get around a small bit as the track has their own photographer that you can buy his shots.

Your cars looked like they were enjoying it as much as you

Watched on ifone

Looks a tight track, is it easy to pass slower cars etc?

Yeah, easy enough. There are only 3 passing areas though.

I couldn't due to not being the best driver in the world, but I think it would be easily possible to.
