The user interface on BAT's website is great. Easy to use, clear and simple. They even add your photo's to it. Well run days with the right amount of cars booked on. I have done other companies at a cheaper price but they just dont cut the mustard. They book too many cars on track and then your having to queue to get on track. Not with Book a track :-) The best bit is not having to pay extra for passengers. Why should you pay more. BaT have got this right. :-) For a great day out, book with Bat.

Can't argue with anything that's been said before. Always been a great day out, well run, friendly helpful and attentive staff. Never had any problems and would recommend without hesitation. My track day provider of choice, and have been for 10 years.

I have been using BaT for track days for four years. There are a few features of BaT that ensure they are my sole provider for track day events: - The number of cars attending a BaT event is limited to ensure that maximum, quality track time is enjoyed by all attendees. - Car hire: BaT have a fleet of Caterham R300/Superlights that are available for hire at each event. This package includes all you need for a quality track day including all consumables (fuel, tyres etc) and professional instruction. - The team are friendly and personable, creating a welcoming atmosphere for regulars and newcomers alike. - The range of venues range from premium UK circuits such as Donington Park, Silverstone and Brands Hatch - to circuits across Europe such as Spa-Francorchamps, Jerez and the Nurburgring. - The team are always quick to respond to queries via email, which I always find a pleasant surprise given how busy in envisage (or expect?) them to be organising all these quality track days!

In the past I have used a few different track day companies but BookaTrack really stand out and as a result of this I now exclusively use them and have been a Platinum member last year and again this year. With BookaTrack there are always far fewer cars on track than with most other organisers. This means virtually no queues, fewer cars on track and less frustrated drivers who have been waiting ages to get out. This all contributes to far fewer red flags, much more time on track and a much better experience when you're out there. Along with the fantastic track time all the BookaTrack staff are friendly and helpful really the making the day as enjoyable for you as they can. As I am a regular customer I have got to know all the staff very well and when I turn up at a track day it's more like meeting up with friends rather than people you are just paying to let you get out on track. BookaTrack also offer some very useful track services. They take my track wheels to the track and swap them over for me. They can also change tyres in the lorry and offer some friendly mechanical advise if you have any problems. I really can't recommend them enough.

I have been using BaT for trackdays for 11 years now. Organization is superb. For novices the tuition and novice sessions are ideal, a great introduction to trackdays which means they should hold no fear for the novice attendee. All attendees can be confident that there is a zero tolerance policy towards aggressive behaviour -- overtaking is only on the straights and by consent. For trackdays, I've never found it necessary to use anyone else.

I've done trackdays with various organisers over the years, bikes and cars, in the UK and Europe. BaT are by far my favourite - they've got the perfect balance of fun in a safe yet relaxed atmosphere, and Jonny and Sarah really bring the personal touch to it, whether you're in your own car, passengering with someone else or hiring one of their BaT Cats. There's a great social scene too and I've made a bunch of friends over the years.

Having done a fair few trackdays with BaT over the years, the main features have always been: - plenty of track time - a sensible number of cars at each event - well run with a strict adherence to safety guidelines and policing of driving standards The choice of venues is such that there's something to suit everyone, and the instructors on hand have always been great - patient, encouraging and confidence inspiring.

I'm a newcomer to track days, but my two days with BookaTrack have been hugely enjoyable. The staff are efficient and friendly, everything is very well run. My visit to the Nürburgring with BookaTrack was one of the highlights of my life so far. I'm so glad we went with BookaTrack rather than a crowded public session.

I've been using BaT as my main provider of track days now for many years. The reason for this loyalty is quite simply they're the best out there at what they do. Their days are well organised, well run, friendly and offer the best quality track time out there. They're not the cheapest, no (nor are they the most expensive), that's because they limit numbers on track. This allows you to enjoy yourself without having to constantly deal with traffic and queues. You get what you pay for, and the fact that I favour them over all other providers means that at least for me, they've got this balance just right.

I have used BookaTrack for many trackdays over the years and it's safe to say you are always guaranteed very friendly days with uncrowded sessions. Even with a mix of fast and slow cars on track at the same time I've always found the driving of others to be very courteous (and I'm one of the slow ones). I've used a few other companies in the past and have never found them to have the same mix of quality track time and camaraderie found on a BaT day.

I have been using BaT for trackdays for over 10 years. BaT days really are the best, superb organisation, a comprehensive briefing, actual enforcement of the rules to make it a safe and enjoyable day for everyone. Highlights include many Anglesey weekends getting sunburnt and of course the Nurburgring virtually empty. I only wish I could afford platinum membership.

I've enjoyed all the track days I've done with Bookatrack over the years. They are always very responsive to questions or issues you may have and deal with things courteously and professionally. Their Caterham hire "arrive and drive" service is fabulous and takes all the pain and worry out of thrashing your own car!

My first experience of Bookatrack was in November 2008 at Anglesey. Since then I have returned as loyal customer over these past years to exciting and memorable track days in both the UK and Europe. The Bookatrack staff are always on hand with helpful advice to both novice and regular track day enthusiast. The days are always well organised with a focus on safety through thorough safety briefings. Anyone wanting to try a track day experience for the first time should certainly opt for a BAT day. Having used other Track Day organisers in the past, the BAT experience is certainly value for money. Yes, there are other and cheaper organisers out there, but being kept waiting in queues in the pitlane or snaking around the circuit in queues as there are too many cars on track, dictates I still return to BAT as a regular customer.

The best track-day company I have used. Combines high degree of professionalism on all things track-related with very friendly customer focus. The whole BaT Team (and it is a team) will always go the extra mile to ensure you get the most from your track-day from helping with broken cars to giving advise on conditions and providing the best instruction there is. Phone calls and e-mails are always answered promptly, and the directors show great flexibility where ever possible into order to meet customer needs. More than just a track-day company. Highly recommended.

If you book a BaT track day you know that it will run smoothly. The very few problems I have witnessed got sorted quickly which means that everyone gets a safe day, true open pitlane and very few red flags. Because of all this BaT tends to attract a better quality of customer. Lastly, their international trips are brilliant!

Probably the best track day company in the world. They're not the cheapest on the market but their customer service is first class and they really do go the extra mile - they even helped me out once by taking a part off one of their cars (one they didn't have out on hire) to put on mine in order to get me back out on track. They are also, without doubt, the friendliest bunch I've been on track with, particularly on the European days.
