This guide is meant simply as that a guide not gospel. It is not necessarily how you will find the circuit to drive, but should give you some idea of what you will be doing on a track day:

The full 2.7 mile Brands Hatch GP circuit is one of the most historic in the UK. It’s also one of the most popular among motorsports enthusiasts and regularly draws big spectator crowds. We’re expecting the trackday to be the same, so book early is our advice. Access to the GP circuit for trackdays is limited due to environmental issues so chances for you to drive this circuit are rare.
The “official” circuit maximum is 42, but like with the Indy circuits we feel this is unsuitable for the venue. The maximum, in the very best conditions, cars on track at any one time will be 34.

Nigel Mansell won the first Grand Prix of his career here at Brands.
Although the group that owns the circuit also owns the rights to stage the British Grand Prix, planning problems at Brands have seen the race stay at Silverstone (now also under the careful control of the same group). Brands Hatch does, however play host to major events through the year - the BTCC and a round of the World Superbike Series.
A historic and popular circuit which has seen many great races in the past, and continues to do so.
When you first take Paddock Hill Bend at speed, you’ll experience a true highlight of track driving in the UK. That’s just the start of your lap though as the full circuit will see you navigate great corners like Hawthorn, and of course, Dingle Dell.
