Is This Event Right For You?
Best fit if you enjoy multi-class racing — GT3 and GT4 cars compete simultaneously in two one-hour sprint races, production-based supercars from McLaren, Lamborghini, Ferrari, Mercedes-AMG battle across Saturday-Sunday rounds.
Best fit if you value spectator-friendly venues — raised viewing areas across Snetterton's 4.778km circuit offer excellent sightlines, two of UK's longest straights (Bentley, Senna) showcase 200mph+ speeds, 12 corners named after motorsport legends.
Best fit if you like family-friendly motorsport — children under 16 attend free, activities between sessions, spectators welcome to bring own food and drink including alcohol, baby changing facilities, accessible paddock atmosphere.
Not ideal if you prefer single-day events — two one-hour sprint races spread across Saturday-Sunday weekend (unique to Snetterton and Oulton Park in British GT), requires two-day commitment rather than single-day attendance.
