Aintree Circuit Day October 5th

Post by Pete »

Ok folks the time's approaching for the second chance of the year to drive around the historic Aintree circuit, (October 5th in fact) former home to the British Grand Prix and many a star studded saloon car race in the early 60's. Cheap for a track day, bright and breezy atmosphere, excellent facilities, fast sweeping corners to keep you focused, lots of Minis, loads of run off and very well organised by LMC who normally send all the Minis out in one batch. You can also book online once the booking facility goes live (9th September, 7pm), am I selling this well enough ?? :lol:
