Talking to some of the circuito staff at the weekend it will be a few weeks before the Arena circuit is finished, but it is several weeks ahead of plan.

Plenty of JCB's etc round Club and Abbey yesterday so I think you will be correct Skids

Kim the trackday was originally advetised as the NEW GP circuit, I have the PDF sent me by FE to prove it, they have obviously altered there site since then

[ells]

Just fired off my second email to FE. I am a Man who likes to have a bit of paper telling him where to go and have had no details through either email or post so far. They did not respond to first email. Hoping this is just a hitch. The circuit is what it is but would have been nice to be the new one as advertised.

Was just speaking to somebody at the circuit and it will be the national circuit this weekend

Sorry to advise, would have been grat to see you all on the new circuit, the tarmac is down but not all the barriers are in place yet

Likewise, I also sent a email to them basically saying it would have been nice to Know that we are not going to be using the circuit layout we booked and paid for. Gordon now informs us it will be the National track, then there is no way i would have been paying the same money for the National circuit as I would the New GP circuit layout.
I have no issue with the National circuit as its the one we will race on and well suited to the DD bikes, but I may not have bothered getting the 998R ready and certainly wouldn't have paid that money I would more than likely have gone with hottrax date 9 days later who are still saying they are on the Arena GP circuit. If I only wanted to do the National we could have done the one on April 23rd

[bradders]

agree Kev!! Grrrrrrrrrrr

I really dont mind which track providing I get a few giggles and give the bike a good run out.

Have to agree with Kev.

This time last year we booked the national circuit which was about £75 I think, making the price hike to £125 seem reasonable for the full GP track.

I must say I'm disappointed that no information has come through and I too may well have booked a different date with a more interesting track....

[Dementor]

£125 for a 1.6 mile circuit in March is taking the p**s......but at least I might be able to remember it

Also I bet the the groups will be huge as they will have been for a 3 mile circuit!!!!
