Goodwood Circuit - tha\' tha\' that\'s all, folks ...
 

A little bird told me that Goodwood Motor Racing Circuit will no longer be hosting motorcycle trackdays for the foreseeable future.

A call to the Circuit itself has confirmed this. The reason - motorbikes go too fast.

Next, I suspect that car parks around the country will begin to close because they tend to fill up with cars.

I ask you ... ffs.

:flame::flame::flame:

Sounds like maybe the nasty 'litigation' word has reared its ugly little head once more ???

Maybe the outcome after a nasty accident to a motorcyclist there last year.

We know that happens on other circuits. :(

Mr Bushell, can the club afford to buy Goodwood? :o :rodent:

That would really upset the neighbours :D

The noise restrictions are far too tight for it to be our circuit :(

Shame, as it's my local, and a great, fast circuit.

Won't stop us going through the tunnel on the rev limiter tho!

Oooooh!
 

Never realised the Espace had a rev limiter :o

my 748 with 50mm termi's pasted the noise tests- just about at 3/4 thottle 7500rpm:P

don't know what they mean bikes go to fast!
I was only pulling 10,500rpm in top gear down lavent straght

The case i'm thinking of when all the other participants were sent home was I'm told by a mate who was there was put down to the dangerous condition of the track surface.

I was at a td at goodwood last year that was cancelled by the management because it was too slippery for bikes ... and he said it was because of all the crap the _cars_ leave on it from their fuel additives and water additives not just their oil which stayed _in_ the track surface for several days after a meeting :puzzled:
It _was_ damp, and not clearing very fast, and a complete **** did plough into the chicane way too fast for the condidtions, so it didnt seem a bad judgement actually.
