Rider Skills Day (Track Day) at Benson 2nd July - Page 2

Certainly hope to be there, Not sure what bike I will be on.
Whele did one a while back at Benson and suffered a fair bit of stone chipping to his paint work so I will leave the 998 at home
Most of my early racing was done on airfield circuits anyway so I'm use to it, Senna3's first trackday was also on a airfield circuit, they can be fun unless your name is Weeksy

Skidlids is correct about being peppered with stone chips, take plenty of low tack tape to protect all your leading edges. Track is cetainly not simple and is knee down and top end friendly, as it's an airfield there's also miles of run off.

might be worth doing this on the monnie...sounds like fun

Feedback seems to be positive, so I've got a form and am going to give it a go.

Lawrie sent a map of the "track" as well. 12 bends, 1km straight (half the runway...), no hills.

Any chance you could put a link up here for it?

Brent · 25-Mar-2005, 14:44

Harv - Here's a scan of the sheet showing the track.

OK so who's doing this one then, copy and paste to get a list going?
