Title: Special Birthday Treat - V8 Vantage or a DB9
Post by: Auto Addict on 24 June 2009, 06:16:06
Celebrated a special birthday over last weekend.

My son and daughter have bought me an Aston Martin thrill.

Undecided which race track to take it at.

Must admit, can't wait.

Don't go to Three Sisters. It is designed for Karts and is very narrow and twisty. I have rallied a car there a couple of times and I don't find it any good. Great in a kart though!  :y

Its got to be Donnington.

Rockingham is good for single seater but, its a bit flat.

Donnigton has some good complex's and is on a hill so some ups and downs to (which is also why it will be a good grand prix circuit!)

As above, happy belated birthday wishes mate! :)

Shame Brands isn't on that list, that's a great circuit as well for track days.

Sadly its in the south east.....which is why 95% of the population dont like it  ;D

I would estimate that something approaching 20% of the population of G.B. live within an hours drive of Brands (in the over populated south east). ;)

For me it would have to be Donnington if I couldn't, somehow, get onto the Millbrook test track! 8-) 8-) ;D ;D ;D ;)

Thanks for voting, it looks like Donnington then, the one I favoured anyway. :y
