Chris, only one thing ...... can you please make sure there's somewhere to overtake !!!!
I love the jumps and stuff but it would be great if there was somewhere that wasn't an obstacle for some clean overtaking moves. There's nothing worse than being stuck behind someone in qualifying (particularly) and not being able to get through without 'running the gauntlet' lap after lap. The referees at Leighton done their best but it was really manic at times and i'm sure that the Leighton track was less 'busy' than the Wycombe track is ever going to be.
Personally at Wycombe, because of the lack of space, I think that a more open track with a good variety of surfaces (slippy, bumpy etc) and a couple of 'serious air' jumps would be more appropriate and a lot easier to marshall. The danger is that if there is too much going on in one lap then the overall meeting would be a disaster instead of a success. A demanding obstacle course is fine if qualifying is done 'rally style', i.e on your own, but when attempted by ten people all wanting the same thing (to post the fastest time), it can get a bit out of control and a good run is easily spoiled by someone having a bad one dropping onto you from a flyover.
As a non-member of the club I obviously don't get a say but I thought i'd just voice my opinion, for what it's worth.
...... I can't wait for Wycombe national, I hope it's the success it deserves
