Blyton Park?
Anyone ever been? It's not too far from home and looks a good beginner track. Might take the saxo out in the summer.

Brilliant first time circuit, great atmosphere and long run off you can really explore the car would recommend especially for the money.

Never been myself. But heard tarmac is good but the track is thin. Have a look at youtube vids if you haven't already!

I've been twice and been off and its perfect for novices. I went off coz I pushed too hard and my brakes faded alot due to being standard. Basically I was more than the car could handle haha poor saxo. But now its got some fat brakes on it

Ah right, cheers guys! I'll watch a few vids, sounds ideal for a first track. I was always tempted with Elvington but heard nothing but bad reports about the surface.

Cheers Stew! I fancy a few laps of Blyton before I try Cadwell! I'll not be out until the summer anyway, I'd just never heard of it before! Only thing I've noticed on a lot of the vids is everyone cuts the corners! Looks more of a high power circuit...
It's cheap though.
