It is a mistake to assume a record will or won't go based on last year. I did that with Castle Combe. I was very close in my first season, but no nearer the second year on a better bike with better tyres. It is a different year with different riders on a different day. Anything could happen.

Brands - wrong time of year, but I think 3 of us were within half a second last year. Depends on weather and how much anyone pushes...

Anglesey - Phil had a (ahem) very light bike with plenty of power, but with Sam, Phil and I all getting similar times it clearly isn't impossible... However, conditions were near perfect for Anglesey. Are you on the same track layout this year?

Cadwell - Bradders and I were very close, but neither of us had the quickest bikes.... But conditions were very good.

Donny - new layout, new record

Snetterton - I think Neal could have gone quicker, but he clearly had a dodgy fuel pump in the dry race.

Oulton - It was cool and wet/damp all day. I had quicker times from the dry practice day, but Sam's time is pretty impressive!

The class A Oulton times are quick, they would be competitive in the W100 mini twins. The class B time would embarrass bigger bikes in a track day fast group

That's Cobby for you. However his Pembrey record did fall to me last year and then to Andy the next day so anything is possible.

No corkscrew but it does include a decent back straight and a fast right hairpin. Left hander on to start finish is a bit tighter and trickier though.
