The track looks really good, many thanks to Matt Fletcher for sacrificing his day yesterday covering the jumps, and adjusting the layout ready for tonights meeting.

PS the club will have a selection of tyres available tonight at the usual prices.

Thanks for putting on the racing last night guys, and for lending me a car!

Track was great fun and a good layout. I know there have been some doubts about the height and position of the rostrum. Personally I thought the majority of the track was easy enough to see and race on. Only the straight at the back of the track was tricky. As the track can still be changed, this could be helped by either bringing the main straight to the front of the track or just making it wider.

The only other improvement I would personally benefit from is the track edgings to be white at the hair pin bends. In the dieing light they didn't really stand out.
