no but in reality i dont think we will get on any of the gp circuits (brands or sliverstone) or rockingham intl for that matter. i would do them all though. great circuits

I agree, far too expensive, however Silverstone national is not too bad and they already race there. I think MRO even do the international??

Whats wrong with Castle Combe?

Cadwell Woodlands IS rubbish though.

Oulton MUST be part of it next season :D

The rest is OK by me.

NBs996 08-Jul-2005 19:07

Out:
Combe
Rocky (I know, but just making sure!)

In:
Oulton
Thruxton (I know, but it's nice to dream!)

Cadwell Woodland - Oi, leave it alone, it was a good meeting :mad:

Rattler 08-Jul-2005 19:21

Out:
Cadwell Woodland
Castle Combe

In:
Oulton
Almeria !!!!!
or maybe Mondello park - for the craic !

Not a fan of Rocky either - was there this week and it started wet and it was so slippery - all that BMW rubber they reckon - 3 riders went down in the first 2 laps!!! (a brand new K5 Gixxer and a new blae amounst them).

Oh my gawd I agree with The Domskie:

Castle Coombe is OK and who said drop Cadwell!! Wash your mouth out.

Oulton is a belter and my favourite circuit - sort of a longer wider Cadwell (not so good for the local curry houses though) and should definately be in.

Pembrey is a chalenging place and would be in my list - no long striaghts so probably good for the DDs as well. But it is Wales so it WILL be wet.

Likewise Brands GP was a stonker when it had Dingle Dell but haven't ridden it since they pi..ed about with it.

So in summary:

Cadwell
Pembrey
Oulton
Donnington
Lydden - there's a surprise and won't happen 'cos it's BEMSEE - but would work well with the little Duk's.
Brands (either)
C.Coombe

Only drop Cadwell Woodlands Ian, not the full circuit.

AK 08-Jul-2005 22:21

We agree with Dom & the Old man ref C/Coombe - no probs with that, as Mark thought it was ok, and he hadn't ridden there for over 8 years.

Happy with all the circuits, tho not poss Cadwell Woodlands (take it or leave it)

BUT: we'd pref most races to be on a Sat:rolleye: , as logistics for returning from Cadwell at the end of the series on a late Sunday nite with work the next day, is something we aint looking forwards to:(

edited to add: at least can the 'powers that be' consider staying with the same promoter next season for all the races?

Cadwell woodland circuit

AK 08-Jul-2005 22:30

so - what IS the problem with Castle Coombe then, you lads :puzzled: (Mark has asked me to ask the question)
He says that it seems those who have race experience thought it was fine, those who hadnt dont like it.

Is it because none of you ever do trackdays there?

or something else?:puzzled:

he says: not picking a row - just asking:)

Castle Combe..
 
Its just too much stop-start! They've got one big loop of a track and they've put three artificial twists in it to slow the big bikes down, it just ruins the rhythm of the track.
IMHO :o
