Get ready for a new Record every Round in 2011 No, not me being overly optimistic! With the extended race length there will be a new Race time record for both classes every weekend (except probably Castle Combe): Brands Hatch 16 laps - longest previously was 12 laps Mallory Park 15 laps - longest previously was 10 laps Spa - If we go it is a first and so all records will be new. Anglesey 12 laps - longest previously was 8 laps Snetterton 300 10 laps - we did do 10 laps on the old 2mile circuit, but 2011 will be on the new 3 mile layout. Pembrey 15 laps - longest previously was 10 laps Cadwell 10 laps - Longest previously was 8 laps Castle Combe 8 laps - This is a guess and will probably be the only one that stays the same as it is New Era's own race. Oulton 8 laps - longest previously was 7 laps So anyone winning a race next year stands a very good chance of also going into the record books. So all start looking forward to a Record setting 2011. |
Fantastic can't wait. Only 67 days to go. |

I figure it will be a good idea to at least run the bike when it is back together.... So seems like a perfect opportunity. |
Surely the longer the race the more weight(fuel) is being carried and by the end of the race most will be a little worn out to go flat out?? Mark Just looking to book that day right now!! |

In terms of when anyones fastest lap will come, it might be interesting to see if we do slow down at all in the last laps. Actually, whilst looking up the times from Brands last year (to see what I did and what everyone else was doing... targets for the practice day) I noticed that Mr Lawson was less than 1/10th of a second from the overall lap record at Brands last year. Matt... you coming on the 20th so I can learn your lines?!!.... (I need to find 3 seconds). |
Newbie Question About Race and Practice Dates On the original 2011 race date calendar that I believe you refer to here, there were several Fridays quoted as practice days. These do not appear on the e-mail we were subsequently sent confirming the race dates, so are these Fridays to be booked separately from the weekend racing? I thought they were included as part of the weekends regs? :confused: I've just booked a Focused Track Day at Brands on the 11th Feb - anyone else going to be there? I can't do the ACU test days yet as I won't have my licence until just before Brands (I hope!). |
I'm at Snetterton on Sunday 27th Feb.. Need to test the suspension after all the changes and run in the engine etc. The circuit has been changed significantly and is only 30 mins away from me, so it will also be a chance to suss it out before our round there :-) I know Brands quite well and that hasn't changed, so will give that a miss. |
doing Brands (not booked yet tho) on 20th (I think) with Hottrax which is an ACU day. re practice days - yes book direct with Hottrax - some are on the website now. |
All times are GMT +1. The time now is 13:56. |
