This day is now sold out but we usually get a couple of people thatneed to cancel. If you would like to go on our reserve list, pleaseemail Dave Pearce - DaveP@MGs-on-Track.co.uk
 
We are very pleased to be returning to the Silverstone Arena GP circuit this year having been unable to run this event in 2016. We will be operating from the Heritage pits, not the new Wing complex. The curcuit is as used forthe British Grand Prix. It is 1/2 mile longer than the previous GPcircuit and the new Arena section is a real technical challenge. This is athree session per hour day with each session lasting 20 minutes. We expect eachcar to have 2 hours of track time throughout the day, assuming no stoppages.There is only one MG session with the two other sessions being taken by partner car clubs.
