Guys, I have been asked to make you aware of this event with MG’s on Track, a group the OC has a long history with.
It is a sessioned event, so 20 minutes per hour, but a full day so you should get 7 sessions.
The price is £185 to none MG on Track drivers, which for the GP circuit, even at this time of year is very good.
So if you want to say you have driven on the same bit of tarmac as your F1 hero or want some Silverstone Classic bragging right this is the chance.
As for danger, Silverstone is a modern GP circuit designed foe 200mph rockets, the circuit is wide and and there is run off designed for those 200mph cars so should be considered a pretty safe circuit.
While it is a wide circuit, designed for fast car, don’t think it is austere, the Maggotts / Becketts combination is thrill in any car, Stowe is fast, Abbey is a challenge, Brooklands exciting and Copse has always been a great corner in a MX-5, now it has about a football pitch worth of run off you can really try.
