I was wondering which county has the most race/drag circuits. I was thinking Northamptonshire as it has Silverstone, Santa Pod and Rockingham. Any info would be greatly appreciated

Yorkshire would be fairly high on the list I think.

Including all the Ridings, there's Croft, assorted airfield tracks (think Hammond) and two drag tracks near each other who's names escape me.

There are 2 or 3 on the outskirts of Middlesborough. I think.

I don't understand the significance of this thread for touring cars?

Are you wanting them to go Drag Racing?

No, I was just wondering and unsure of where to put it so I placed it here.
A one off BTCC drag race would be fun and a novel idea though

Honda Integra or Vauxhall Astra would win.

Seat Leon would be last.

Mark Smiths Alfa Romeo was the second fasest in a straight line at the 'stone and any rear wheel drive car should get a better launch

Elvington?

The fun I've had at Elvington and Melbourne dragways .... ah, them were the days :D

Sorry, haven't heard of the other two you mentioned.
