It's the first two laps of the first inters session after lunch so processional and slow - no good for lines but gives you an idea of track layout.

I thought it might be good study material for those of us not able to make it there before the race.

Enjoy

Cool. Track now learned, ready to race!

last corner looks mad!

It seems to be a bunch of chicanes joined together!

phoenix n max · 20-Apr-2005, 21:07

Yeah - I just got the full vid - how many chicanes ? I lost count

NBs996 · 20-Apr-2005, 21:10

There's only 2 chicaines, the second one on the vid seems to be a temporary one maybe set up for the track day(?)

That last bend onto the start/finish straight looks bloody good fun tho!

Last time I rode there (in 1998, before the chickens were put in) it felt a little off camber if memory serves me correctly.

I thought the 'old' layout was ace, but then you'd do the wholelot in top gear on a DD bike

I do agree Sir

Last September there were 3 chicanes with one getting added at the end of the lap to slow riders entry onto the start finish straight. The other two have been used at all bike meetings since 1999 as far as I know.
