Ask again at the end of may ;-) I'll be doing my first Morgan track day at Goodwood and really looking forward to it.
It's an all Morgan day, so hopefully it should be well run and no stupid risk taking drivers putting your pride and joy at risk. I would like to know how the Plus 8 fairs against other cars (non Morgan)on a track though...

I've done a couiple of track days
wel... more "experience" days
Ferrari 360 at Rickingham
Exige at Silverstone
Awesome days but not enough laps
I'd be tempted to take the 4/4 to a track but wary about idiots getting too out of control.
I have seen bike trackdays at Pembrey - 5 mins away from me and they seemd well organised with grading of riders and everyone well behaved.
If the same standards were applied to a car day then - yes
Llandow does days too - 40 mins drive. More open with less barriers!
I may try one.

I may try one. I know it might be a bit of a South-North trek but Ty Croes is good( my sample is small but of the few I've done I really enjoyed that one) Llandow is near for me but my lower spine doesn't like being ground into dust- terrible surface G G

You need another category..... "I'm interested/tempted!"
Only just got the Mog but fancy doing something like Prescott at some stage. Done a few classic bike track days in the past at Mallory which I loved.

Off to Croft next week for an AMG Experience day, though driving up in the Aero.  Never been at this circuit before, so looking forward to it.

Surprising comment. I've done Llandow twice - once in a Boxter abd once in my Elise. Never noticed any surface problems on either occasion - seemed no different to Castle Combe tbh

Never noticed any surface problems on either occasion - seemed no different to Castle Combe tbh It's a personal thing I guess. My two outings were both in a Caterham, (although I did do one more years ago than I can remember in a Cooper 'S' with a Richard Longman engine) Your mention of the 'Combe is appropriate- because from my own point of view, I'd make exactly the same comment about the surface there regards, G
