I like the idea of a saloon only track day
If you look on the castle combe website they have the track day dates on there. I think the only date in September is wednesday the 9th.
The cost is £170 for the day.

In terms of circuits - your best bet for hiring for yourselves is Llandow in South Wales - a long haul for many people - but it is small and cheap - and you have the place to yourselves.

I have done it before with a total 20 people - £130 per car - brilliant day - there would usually be only 5 cars on track at any time - and we were able to stop the day - and have a "beginners/ladies" session for 20mins. The chief marshall is good fun - and happy to let the day go smoothly.
