Catalan 710 Posted February 14, 2018 When i popped in there was no one there as dog track had been done. But inside of first two bends had been stripped. Start line is moving back 10 metres. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Start line is moving back 10 metres. Ok thats interesting, bend one needed pulling up and re laying but really that area needs to be dolled off when its done so nobody goes on it. Intersting to read startling being moved back 10 metres, makes it a shorter home straight, but a longer run to bend one. I wonder what effect that will have ?

Riders start turning into 1st bend on start line which being ripped launches riders into corner, which being a bit bumpy is not a good recipe. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

No its not, very hard to keep that section of track rut free, thats probably the most used part of the track. be interesting to see how a longer run to turn one goes.
