Darrane,
Sorry I guess that sounded very negative, it wasn't meant to be, more constructive.
The tyres I ran had seen the best on grass but would still be ok for a couple of practice runs, after the meeting (5 runs) they had no spikes left on the middle 3 rows, if you ran a BRCA event the top drives would be putting tyres on every round and couldn’t afford not to if they wanted to run the best times, I don't see that as acceptable, let’s face it off road means exactly that, tarmac is not an accepted off road surface.
Anyway that just my view and I guess everyone else will differ.
All your facilities are good and it would be a shame to lose the opportunity of making it a good off road track, I know that’s very difficult given your restrictions and wanting to run circuit and off road.
The table top is a little strange, it seems to kick the car different every time even if you run the same lines, even the "good" drivers found it unforgiving and frustrating, not something that’s exactly asking them to come back.
I applaud your efforts so far but collecting constructive comments and thinking about them should make for a better track.
I will re-visit in the future and as for anyone who is reading this, please do not let my comments put you off from going and giving it a try, especially if your local as we have nothing else permanent right now in the area, but please give your views too.
Jim
