Brrrrrrr, done a February day in the past, it's chilly, and if it's not sunny the track could well stay very cold, or frosty in places, for a lot of the morning sessions. Plus the sun dips low fairly early in the afternoon so there's almost no one left by 4pm.

Be careful.

) and I can't wait to get on track with duc....

I'm sure it'll be good. Just warm the tyres well. Went once where a guy binned it going into Paddock Hill bend after leaving the pit lane, what's that, about 200 yeards ?

Brrrrrr I did a November Trackday at Brands and it was bloody freezing. But the weather was sunny (with a chilly wind) and the track was ok. I did not have any issues with grip but did take it easy due to cold fingers and toes making feeling levers ect poor.
Take care if you do go. I had a bike jacket that with armour removed fitted over my leathers that helped a lot.
