Indy track days usually have a noise limit of 105dba and the GP track days are normally quieter, and are measured at 98dba. It also hosts a number of driver/rider activity days.

have no doubt - it will be expensive....
Fuel, tyres, brakes all get hammered on track.
Getting there, food, getting home can be costly too, ontop of the fee for track time

If you get 10 cars, 1 goes for free type thing, but obviously would need to be pre booked......
If everyones calling themselves and booking, then you wont get the discount.
JR has never invited me for tea and biscuits and I used to live all of 1km away max (but had to go through some dirty woods ).
our discount is worked out diffrentley, so its fair for evreyone, if we get 10 people the omey evreyone saved would proberly pay for another persone
but ive done it so we get 15 people + we all get discounted

steve TBH driving round an internationally famed circuit, on an open pitlane day, its never going to be cheap is it
Going with CS will get you good discounts and a few more extras that you wouldnt get, better than nothing

Jsut becuase you've played a game on a playstation you think you know it... Or becuase your dad uses it for track days
Also, to put into perspective of a track day... My last one...
Track day - open Pitlane (9am-4pm) = £99.
1 tank of Optimax = £50
1 tank of Super unleaded = £48
1 tank of Unleaded = £45.
Fuel up there and back = £40
Food, drink, general funding + BnB (for travellers) = Lots.....
Didn't have to fork out for new tyres or pads though.
Brands is a good circuit, up there with Silverstone and Donnington. Just still shocked at £140 for Winter/Spring session on the indy... Mofo brands hatch...

My side of London, south east London. Look on Google earth for M25 River Thames junction (East london), follow the M25 down, 2nd motorway south of the river = M20.. Follow that along the map and u'll see brands upside down 
Basically, Andy Stockers distance + another hour n half....

well getting there is fine. it's only up the road. i might give it a miss as it is going to cost a lot probably and knowing my luck i'll end up breaking something. will defiantely be up for coming up, i'll bring the 106 or go on the back of my dads bike!! I will have to get into track days in the summer as i really would like to do them, but atm i have got things planned in the new year an £500 could be spent on the car!!!!

Hacking round a brillint circuit with mates - Priceless
