I have driven the short circuit at Cadwell a couple of times but never had a chance to try the mountain section.  I love the idea of a mountain in Lincolnshire.

I have no doubt that you would have enjoyed a day at Cadwell.

Steven, it certainly lived up to the hype. I think it would take a few visits to really get to know the circuit. The Mountain does feel rather scary as the back wheels lift when you are at the top and you lose traction. Cheers

The corner I could never understand was Barn.  That looked ridiculously dangerous.  To think in Senna's day they ran F3 round there.  Scary.  For anyone who doesn't know the circuit the corner is called barn because there is a barn on the exit.  No kerb, no barrier just a barn.

Thank you Ian.

Stephen,
Barn, The Hairpin and Hall Curves are really hard to get right. The corners in that part of the circuit come thick and fast. If you go off line you kinda lose your rhthym there I found.

I've no idea how the likes of Senna in the F3 raced there, way too narrow in places I'd have thought. Cheers

Well done, Neil! Looks like it was a great time.

Hi pleiades, the cost of the Trackday was £175.
Cheers Cos, was a good day. Would most probably go again this year if it wasn't a four and half hour drive. I'll go again next year for sure.

Nice one Neil glad you finally got there. It is a bit hairy the first time but it does get a lot less scary.
