£159 is a great price for a Saturday track day anywhere.

Cadwell is fab, here's a taster for you:

That looks damn awesome! The mountain looks tough on tyres.

It is! No worries with the Mountain on tyres really, more of a slight chirrup when you get "air". Just make sure the steering wheel is pointing straight ahead as you go over it though, this is important!

Might pop over, been awhile since I last saw a S2000 going around there.

Wise words of wisdom of keeping the steering straight going over the mountain. Just watch your revs too you don't to over over rev her as you get air. Ford Falcon blew its diff going over the top of the mountain at a race meeting.

Cadwell is tough on tyres, brakes but also you so remember to rest. Most apexes are late and there's little run-off around hall bends, the hairpin and barn corner where most accidents happen (very greasy even in the dry).

Awesome track - you will have fun.
