I've put together a list of all the track days in the UK with a searchable database etc. It's just a hobby site because I do quite a few track days myself in a Caterham and I got fed up having to visit 30 different organisers to find a suitable day. I am more of a car person myself but I included the bike track days as I wanted the list to be as complete as possible.

I'm after feedback for any days I've missed out or ways I can improve the site, just let me know please. :)

Hi everyone,


Thanks for all the comments and feedback. I've gone away and made quite a few changes to the http://www.trackdaylist.com track day list that I put up. Hopefully these are all positive and what you like to see! The changes are:


1) Date format is now DD-MM-YYYY instead of YYYY-MM-DD.


2) I've added Mornings/Afternoon lengths, previously it was just Full Day/Evening.


3) When you click on a flag on the map it no longer resets the zoom and centre of the map.


4) Clicking "Show Notes" no longer shows for all events, just the one you clicked.


5) Change the distance search, so mileages are now 50, 100, 150 and 200 instead of 10, 20, 50, 100, 200.


6) I've also put up a list of instructors and hire companies... if you are an instructor/hire company and want to be included let me know.


7) General redesign to make it a bit more attractive.


8) Updates to some of the labels, e.g. noise limits and full day, to make it clearer and easier to understand.


9) Biggest change for usability is you can now pass information to the search engine in the query string, e.g.:



To list Easytrack events:

Car: http://www.trackdaylist.com/?organiser_id[]=5&vehicle_type=Car

Bike: http://www.trackdaylist.com/?organiser_id[]=5&vehicle_type=Bike


You could list all events at Silverstone at the weekends:

http://www.trackdaylist.com/?circuit_id[]=32&weekdays=1,7


Or maybe all events in July with a noise limit of 105dB:

http://www.trackdaylist.com/?noise_stat ... 2010-07-31


Car events in August at Silverstone:

http://www.trackdaylist.com/?circuit_id[]=32&date_start=2010-08-01&date_end=2010-08-31&vehicle_type=Car


I've also got in touch with all of the track day organisers, and had a really positive response from them, so thank you. Most organisers have asked for a login so they can add/edit their own events, which is great for everyone as it means the information is kept as fresh and up to date as possible. Less work for me too. :)


That's about it for now, as always please keep the feedback coming my way so I can improve it and make it the site you want it to be.

Track days are great ways to explore the limits of your bike and develop performance riding techniques without the threat of traffic, pedestrians, road hazards, or even law enforcement! There is usually some fee and security changes will have to perform in order to pass inspection, but you will find that there is no substitute for practicin your skills on the track.
