Fastest DD tracks
 

The fastest average speed at any track was set by Geoff last season at Snetterton, 86.08mph.

Second fastest was the last meeting at Donington, and Glenn's lap of 83.70mph.

How about Cadwell Woodlands then? 60-something? It's pretty tight and twisty...






How about 75.30mph :o

I think that's pretty good considering how slow the bikes are (and a little bit interesting)

bleedin eck, that's a shocker.

I would not have guessed anything like as fast as that for the woodland circuit. I must have a look at my speedo next time going through Hall bends!

Yeah, it's actually a faster average speed than the full Cadwell circuit!

That's also Geoff @ 73.17mph.

Amazing really.

That's weired!
My best laps...
Woodland - 70.45
Full - 70.15

Yeah it is weird innit. When you think the rest of Cadwell is very fast, how do you go even faster on the twisty stuff????

:confused:

Well one factor might be gearing.
Dunno about others, but I used shorter gearing on the woodland, therefor accelerated faster. The gearing for the full circuit would slow down the woodland section I'da thought?

Are you looking at the average speed for the whole race?

Dont forget that includes the slow first lap from a standing start, this means you get a really slow laptime for the first lap of the full circuit but it wouldnt make any difference to the woodland circuit as you're not getting the benefit of the start/finish straight and going right almost as your off the line.

To check for real you'd need a lap time from each and know the lap distance of each, then you can get the real lap 'speed'

just an idea ?? ??

Fastest lap Wilf ;)

May sound daft, but following some of the fast DD guys round cadwell last week, i found that they are FAST through hall bends, bottom of the mountain and the last corner (whatever thats called), but, I seemed to fly by them mid corner at the first left hander, charlies and chris curve, so maybe there's something in it ?????

Interesting - I was having to change down into Charlies One and then again going into Charlies Two - maybe its a torque / drive thing??? Were you flat out into Coppice?
