I agree with Dickie, the CSS is not a track day so there's no need to go to a wide open, fast, flowing circuit.

It's about cornering, so you want a circuit that's got corners and plenty of 'em. Doesn't even matter if the circuit is small, if you see the same corner over and over again with only a minute or so in between tries at it, you can practise your techniques on a corner that's not going to surprise you.

That's why Rockingham makes a good teaching circuit but isn't very satisfying to ride a trackday on.

OK, I have been chatting with a couple of mates who have jap bikes. Will prolly just book up for CSS with them for April at Silverstone, then if funds and time allow have a look at CSS in Almeria in October.

Carbon 749, will give you a shout before I book to see if you want to join us. Anyone else most welcome.

Cheers

I should be at Silverstone on the 3rd of April (if everything works out)

If so, I'll see you there :)

There are a few of us on the Easter CSS school at Almeria-looking forward to it, 3 of the clubs trackday instructors are CSS instructors also. DSC trackdays-always good value.;)
