Bloody brilliant, weather held all day!
50 bikes per session which wasn't too crowded at a track the size of Donington GP, 5 sessions of between 20 and 35 minutes, enough track time for my level of fitness, my legs really ache today.
Breakfast and lunch included, with talks from CEOs of Ducati UK and Donington Park, Niall Mackenzie and Glenn Irwin at lunchtime.
Redgate/Hollywood has been resurfaced, so the nasty overbanding has gone.
The pace was slower and less 'banzai' than most trackdays, Ducatisti taking care of their exotic toys I guess? Very few incidents with on track (only one or two single bike offs I'm aware of) marshalling and instruction from CSS.
I was put in the novices but got moved up to inters after the first session, still probably in the fastest few bikes in the group.
Personal highlight: Passing that Desmosedici RR several times :-D
