Silverstone rocks ESP when you have plenty of power. :)
The new arena gp layout is pretty much perfect and the great thing is that the run off is massive. Very hard to have a moment get expensive.

Iv driven the new layout in the RS and its very hard on the car, prob one of the 'hardest on the car' that I have driven.

Yeah I can see that - long straights with heavy braking and fast long corners.
I've only driven in lighter track cars 1/3 the weight.

Donington has been a favourite for RS246 in the past. It seems to cater for the novice and higher.

I'd be up for this.... depending on dates !!
When were you thinking?
The 29th is a Thursday and the weekend is obviously New Year (so that's out).

Anything in December this year would be a no-no for me, way too short notice.

On the other hand, Donington in May 2012 would be good... (memories of Senna's amazing performance in the wet European GP).

Silverstone is centralish for most I would have thought and has good access in and out. They've also done things with Audi in the past. I can just about imagine the A43 full of S & RS cars thundering down the road, it would be some sight.

The only downside I see is the weather at that time of year, yes I know it's all screwed up but I would suspect most circuits wouldn't allow any track action over the cooler months.

So I'm up for ever happen's.
