It is, quite simply, the most fun track I have ever ridden.

The Gooseneck and Mountain need a little respect to start off with and keep it nailed along Park straight (which isn't very straight) and be prepared for heavy braking into Park corner - usually see quite a few off-road excursions there. The hairpin can be tricky as the tarmac can sometimes be a little damp under the trees even when the rest of the track is dry.

The Mountain into Hall bends is absolutely sublime.

My absolute favourite track.

Have fun.

Naughty, immy. Very, very naughty. The libel lawyers will be sharpening their quills even as I type.

Well, I gotta admit I would have thought there would have been more responses by now from some of the more seasoned trackday veterans inhabiting this forum.

Help geoff out here, forumites.

I prefer the old Oulton layout.
Cadwell is ok but I always held back a bit too much there.
