BMWOC

Post by boristhebold » Wed Mar 06, 2013 5:19 pm

I've just booked to do the BMW owners club track day at Cadwell in May, anyone else doing it ?
It is a great circuit, a mini Nurburgring, but out on a limb a bit in rural Lincolnshire.
Worth the trip though.
Tuesday 7th May

First time I've heard of this one.

Looks like a couple of exceptionally long straights to really wind the car up ... & then overheat any road pads very nicely :o

They aren't that long and only one would need you to brake especially hard. Coppice, after the start finish straight can be taken at 100mph, no braking at all. Park, after Park straight would need hard braking from a fast speed but the beauty of a BMW OC day is that many there just want to drive swiftly and safely as opposed to very fast!
Give it a go, great fun, decent price for club members...£165 , or £185 for non member. Open pit lane so no issues with getting enough time on track. A wonderful circuit that everyone who loves driving (or biking) should do at least once. :thumbsup:
