Damn, not what I was expecting when I saw the thread title.

used to race there in the opens in 80's on a suzi x7 and believe it or not a gp125 lol
beware, that track is like glass, deadly after a light rain.
low gearing essential for the right handers but a great short track.
best to get on there after the karts when there's fresh rubber down.

had some great times there. best i ever got was a blue rosette, and fell off going past haydock park on the way home!

3 laps is like 6 minutes tops lol but worth it for a good cause.

2 sisters would be good, 3 might be too much..........and if they are only charging a fiver they may be a bit rough..........you may need 3 paper bags.

I used to race there in the 90's, but the bike was even more bizarre......a 100mph MZ250 based racer. I think I still hold the class [Formula Lightweight] lap record for 3-sisters, but only because they dont race that class there anymore.

Great track for small bikes, but way too tight for the big bikes..........I could lap almost as fast as the RC30's in the Open class.
And yes the surface had a strange combination of being very abrasive and having low grip back then.

Edit......yes I am still the lap record holder click here for MZ Lap Records
A great and cheap form of racing if any of you want to try it out. Close racing and lots of good crack..........also good if you like tinkering, as it is easier to make one off parts for a single that matched pair for a twin.
