Or just go out and buy the latest edition of Motorcycle Racer, as they have a walk-through of the track by Leon Haslam.

I was about to mention that, got it on my desk here

Pity as I have no intention of ever doing Cadwell

Why not? Brilliant circuit, don't knock it til you try it.

No run off, very narrow, dire facilities to name but three reasons Henry, when you've been spoilt with Silverstone, Brands, Donny, Oulton, Rockingham etc etc...

So are plenty of others Tony!

Wait until you do Donny... between that and Oulton is a hard call, by far the best tracks I've been round

Cadwell looks a lot scarier to me than was Brands GP on Monday.

Is that the case, or am I being a girl ?

(no offence meant to the girls)

Well, I've done both and I think Paddock Hill is the scariest corner I've done so far.

Oooh, no. What a great corner that is. I was seriously intimidated by that before I went around it, by the end of the day I was destroying sliders round there quite happily

The mountain section is a more challenging / intimidating section, and the hairpin at cadwell has naff all runoff which I find far scarier.

But, then again, Tony's a lot quicker than me.....

I think its how narrow the track is at Cadwell and how little run off there is. Basically means if you get it wrong its likely to hurt alot and do more damage.

Knowing my riding ability i like to balance the fun of the track with the dangers of getting it wrong and for me that means tracks with a bit of space before you hit something.

IMHO if you have not done Cads you are missing out..it is an awesome ciruit with so many features..the only place with no run off is the woodland section......

Oulton is Fantastic and Cads is very close...Cads is so much better than Rocky Silverstone etc........
