Is there still the usual option on to the straight round the banking? That is/was (!) one of my favourite parts of the track

Bri, please stop the text speak if possible, it's painful to read

Yes the bank corner leading onto the straight is untouched.

I wouldn't mind a banked corner on that near left corner - that's so hard to see and judge properly from the stand.

Most of you dont know Bri is sponsered by JCB and rather than drive a buggy round he wants to RIP the track up.

To be honest all the track changes are minor and are all to make the track raceable. Its going to be ace when we've finished.

There's always one. I personally think that a banked corner at the end of the straight-away would be good. Because i cant really see the end of the straight very well because of the conrete track marker just before the corner.

Edited post from Ben above

The end of the straight is perfect, requires a skill to do it. The sloped apex is great too, means the car is flipped rather than broken on a solid object. Id just roll the approach to it so its all smooth and hey-presto... perfection.

Hey guys - glad to see things are looking up.
Any chance of some leaflets to hand out in the shop - its mad that you are the closest club yet we have no info in store, posters, leaflet etc.

We have info for the local smelly clubs NNRC and PRCC both of which are very un local compared to you guys.

Pete
