Am not very experienced on track so would prefer one that's "easier and not too complicated". The tight twisty ones I see watching BSB would scare the hell out of me.
I like the idea of plenty of run off in case it all goes pear-shaped !!

Snett is my 1st choice as the back straight is where I can make ground on Stew. However, I fear his recent 'thorough service' as it is to be known may not mean I can make too much. :-D My QA throttle will defo help though, cheers G, L and G aka Aprilia Performance. Whoop whoop! :-D

Can I ask why?  I've noticed they don't seem to have a very good rep amongst hardcore track addicts for some reason.

I've only done Anglesey days with them so I don't any different yet.

Booked on a Silverstone day a few years back, 3 groups £175. Got there, and they changed, without any notice, to a 4 group day. To make matters worse, they were an hour late signing on as they had forgotten the riders list, and when a few of us complained, got chinned off with 'Sorry, it's one of those things'. I asked for a part refund or credit as we lost about 45 mins of track time due to them changing group numbers and the late start. Now I don't take getting chinned off very well (ask Andijoe), so I spoke to the days manager, Mark I think his name was, and he told me, as an explanation for the change, that it was purely a financial choice, and if I didn't like it, tough. I responded by saying if he ever spoke to me in that tone again, I'd chin him, packed up, went home, and havnt used them since.

I've only ever used FE so far so cant comment how they compare with others. Have done about 11 td's so far and ocne they had a real sh*t day but other than that all fine. The briefings are a bit OTT (never ending rather than brief!). They have supposedly made a big effort to change their attitude recently.
Kev who runs it is one of those like it or lump it people which can grate with some although I keep myself to myself so not had any issue personally.

Worth keeping an eye on MSV themselves. Only run on their own tracks so rules out some of the choices but heard they are pretty well run & sometimes come up cheap. Normally run 4 groups in summer months / on longer days but believe most TD organisers do?

I concur with all of the above, even though I wasn't in attendance on this occasion I've been privy to the same kind of attitude. They seem to just be in it for the money and not for the rider then the mmoney.

No Limits all the way for me. Well run, free bacon buttie and will assist with your badmin if you've forgotten your paper part or both parts of your licence by ringing up DVLA to confirm you have a full licence.
