Open Airfields for fun in your car?

Post by GGilbert_MR2 »

Where is there an airfield or aerodrome where you can drive your cars, similar to top gear and their airfield to just learn your car & enjoy it in an open space, less likely to hit anything?

I'm don't mind places that have a small charge.

Any information or sugestions?

I'm based in the East Midlands

Unless I am blind where does it say on there about airfield days or the like?
Apexi Induction, Gutted Cat, Departure Exhaust, Magnecor Leads, St205 cc, Blitz ebc.
Carbotech pads.

Little confused myself.

In terms of locations its ideal for me. Just wonder if they do open days to jump on and have a little fun.

Why would they let you go out for free when they can charge you £100+ for the priviledge?

Try Motorsport Experience - they run quite a few airfeild days.

As rogue said bruntingthorpe but there is a charge....or asda do a thing for rainbows about august time i think you pay £25-£30 to go on.All profits go to rainbows. You can either drive your car....pay a fiver to be driven in one of their corporate cars ie ford gt,elise etc....drive one of the asda trucks.....or if you got a bike you can do the full track which i did a few years back :thumleft:
