Ducati trackdays 2019

Post by duke63 »

Booked both the Donington one and Silverstone today.

I had a stash box full of loose change i have collected over the last few years and i counted it up over Xmas. Its paid for one and a half of the days.

I have enjoyed the Silverstone days over the last two years, its a very relaxed day with no hassle.

In the scheme of things they are decent value now.

£199 for each day including breakfast and lunch, CSS instructors and backup from Ducati Coventry.

I'm hearing rumours that FE and NL Silverstone and Donny days may be over £200 per day once spring comes around.

Got a link Duke and can you run race cans with baffles in as I don't have the OEM cans.

You need to ring them Blade. Its run by CSS.

There are no noise issues at Ducati trackdays as they are noisy days. I have yet to see anyone be asked to stop even with Desmosedicis on the race can.

I wish they did bike hire for a single session. Would be worth it just to try the V4 on track.

Tbh I would want the day to build up on it. At 389 it's not too bad imo. Not cheap but yoir riding a 24k bike on track and 389 would probably replace a rearsets only.
