Notes:

• id will only be available if the track day is available (i.e. it can still be booked).
• groups information is not always available. Sometimes an event may be available, but no group information will be supplied.
• Noise limits (static and drive by) will be included if available. There absence does not necessarily mean there's no limit, just that the organiser has not provided the data.
