Cadwell is not a place i would suggest to try for a trackday unless you are bit experienced.

I spent many a year thee as a fan, but its a tricky place, lots of hazards ad easy places to crash, and in places its very narrow.

But if you can master it its a great track, I think you will find most people here are fans not riders

I do quite like Cadwell but i just wanted to have a go at someting more than just a track day if you get what i mean. I am a massive Cadwell fan tbh.

I like snetterton too which is going to be the second race from what i see, dont really care how i do as it would be my first one

It depends what you are doing, if you have a bike on a trailer fair enough. Dont know the rules to be honest

But you can rcae just as cheap as doing track days. But I would do a few first before you try racing to get the feel!

I should be able to have use of a trailer for the weekends so fingers crossed thats sorted.

Could just sign up and do one of the later races maybe? Give a bit of time to get my head round it lol

MSVR has done a similar thing for cars; from my point of view as a marshal & from talking to drivers it's a good series & a relatively cheap way of getting into racing. (Racing's never cheap!)

I'd say go for it - & Cadwell's as good a place to start as any; all the racers I know, whether on two, three or four wheels, love it.
