Yeh its a pretty good setup, I skipped all the other stuff last time and did about 74 laps, was lapping a lot quicker than old guys out in GT3 RS etc and I was only in a 718 Cayman S with ceramic brakes.

Nice one! When I ordered my Cupra R in 2004, we had VIP tickets to the BTCC at Silverstone, lunch with Jason Plato, free booze all day and access to the pit garage - Plato won two of the races as well - great day!

Funnily enough, I went on a BMW track day years ago despite having a Prelude, but I did know the local BMW dealer quite well.
It was great fun shredding other peoples tyres. The manual 3 series had its tyres killed in a couple of hours.

Do you know what car yet @Maypack ? The brochure seems to show the Ateca a lot, which on a track would be just as fun seeing how far you push a SUV!

There’s another page that shows a Leon CUPRA too. No idea as to which car yet but I think I’d plum for the Leon given the choice as that’s what I’ve got. Would be nice to get some driving tips for it to improve my own driving ability.

Would be good to see exactly what a same spec car can do, legally!
