happy at either but Oulton is best

Never been to Oulton, only done Cadwell this year because of DD. But I'm glad I did.

To be honest I only started riding on track last year in September and because I entered DD in October I've never been up there for Oulton.

It looks good though, I'd like to do it.

Same here Steve.
Done both, like Cadwell a lot but Oulton is jut that bit better.
Cant put my finger on it but its a lot more flowing if you know what I mean?

The expense of Oulton compared to cadwell is 50% more but dont think it is half as good again but is better.

Cadwell for me is 80-90 miles away Oulton is 100+.

You always seem to discount the other Northern England bigger circuit of Croft too, how many southerners have been up there then?

Nice track, good basic facilities and the track layout is excellent, good mix of everything really, and that is 69 miles door to door for me :D

Good run off areas at Croft wouldn't you say Geoff?

;)

OY,

It looks like Croft will continue to be used for BSB. in 2004 it got the biggest crowd for a BSB meeting.
Yes, even bigger than that overblown mini moto track AKA the brands indy Circuit.

On the topic of Mini Motos, the track in the car park at Tad only got used a few times, then someone got greedy and terminal beaurocracy. I am told Clifton moor @ Bookers?? cash and carry is a regular weekend venue though now and I was told it was free???

As for the oulton/cadwell debate it's yonks since I rode Oulton but from what I can remember I can pretty much scare myself at either track!! Even at the snails pace I go at!

sorry Tony....


but strangely enough i don't think the results of the poll are reflective of the actual facts as people are not responding.

Lily 08-Jul-2005 17:17

Maybe a better poll would be to find out which circuits people had visited this year. Obviously folks who race would visit a fair few, but by the end of this year I will have probably been to:

Oulton
Donny
Silverstone
Mallory
Rockingham
Cadwell
Brands
Snetterton
Croft
