Ok, was surprised to see people suggesting Mallory and Combe as they are quite fast tracks. But I will use them.

Suggest some tracks where you think these would be fun? and I will use them.
Tesco carpark, streatham bus garage, croydon one way system...err that's it off the top of my head I expect I will still turn up Thursday but these are so boring to practise with, I won't have done many laps. At least I know Monaco inside out. I demand a vintage Porsche cup race here as recompense

I would tend to agree on Combe, at least if these don't exibit much in the way of drafting. Short/suitable tracks off the top of my head include: Crystal palace Knockhill (?) Cadwell Mondello Club/National Modern Zandvoort

CHortle @MJ: Check out the next GT event after Portimao..... you may smile Ty Croes that Tony used would be a good one for these , though it's a bit bouncy. I'm working at the Tower of London this week, well not in it, but across the road hence limited ability (hotel non free wi fi) to do much with admin I will do the server stuff on Thursday using 3G but I won't be doing much else so sell sell sell comrades

Please not Cadwell. I'm sick of Cadwell Every series I enter these days seems to have Cadwell in it. Leave it for motorbikes and trackdays There are a few nice twisty Scandanavian tracks where these would be good

What was the Mickey Mouse Scottish circuit that Tony used for Minis? That would be OK. EDIT: Found it! It was Ingliston. But I don't discount the Tesco car park or Croyden One-Way System either!

Tesco's is too tight, Croydon I like, has anyone done it for GTR2? There was a funny tight Scandinavian track that Tony or Legzy used which was a figure of 8 (sort of) That would be good for these.

Ahvenisto Race Circuit? I thought it sucked but that might have been down to some more of Legzy's weather!

1st Thursday for a while is Sports Car, L7 and Enduro alternate on the 2nd Thursday The order of events is loosely based on not clashing tracks/cars with Tony's many GTL series

Mantorp was also one which sprang to mind. Edit: Just had a look at Mantorp and it wasn't the one I was thinking of I seem to remember racing our GTC cars at Knutstorp a couple of years ago, but I can't find the event anywhere (was maybe a fun event?) I also found a newly made track Gotland Ring which looks promising for these... http://www.nogripracing.com/details.php?filenr=36944Annoying thing is neither of these was the track I remember

Matt, a load of the original GTL tracks had short variations. I bet a lot of them were converted to GTR2. You can find the GTL ones by starting GTL then choosing Cup Challenge. You can then browse through the various short track options. When there were few add on tracks these were the tracks we raced on every week. Hmmm maybe you can resurrect them.
