Our annual trackday at Cadwell Park is, for many, the most eagerly awaited event in the Club’s entire trackday schedule; it is the event that is most remembered and talked about long after the day itself has passed. Known fondly as the 'mini-Nürburgring', the circuit offers tight curves and fast sweeping corners, plenty of elevation change and the breath-taking ‘Mountain’ crest, all within a stunning open park and woodland setting. It’s certainly a wonderful circuit to drive in a Seven.
We will have exclusive use of the circuit throughout the day, starting in Sessions format (with drivers grouped according to experience and ability) and then progressing to Open Pit Lane (OPL) operation as soon as possible and – other than in exceptional circumstances – no later than lunchtime. This event is suitable for drivers at all levels.
We provide free instruction which is available to all drivers (bookable in advance once the final instructions are issued or on the day).
Our “buddy system” will be in operation where less experienced drivers can request to be paired with more experienced members who will offer advice and support. Instructions on how to request a Buddy will be included in the final instructions for the day.
The day is ‘noisy’, subject to a 105dB limit measured statically prior to starting track activities.
The cost for a car and main driver is £245; an additional driver (who must be a Club member) costs £40 and passengers are charged at £5 each.
Cars will not be permitted onto the circuit unless fitted with an MSA-acceptable rollbar or roll cage. In practice, this normally means the use of the ‘trackday’ or ‘FIA’ rollbars as supplied by Caterham Cars. Please see our Trackday Safety Requirements and Recommendations document which includes Club guidance on rollbars and safety requirements.
