Great little circuit....with a nice long bend to really test cornering and grip with plenty of run off...

The hairpin is good for a bit of 4 wheel drifting if you get on the power early...I go w.o.t halfway round it for some action.....

The two slight bends before the hairpin are the only place I've had any moments....car has gone very light all of a sudden a few times.....


You will love it !

I found the long left hander between the hairpin and the pit straight to be the worst bit. Nearly had a big 'off' there last year

I followed Rooferman for a very short while last year and he doesn't do corners. Well not like normal people anyway
