Hmmm, I'm about to fall asleep so dont listen to me. Southport I guess is one of the closest tracks to you in terms of jumping off the ferry? Thats a guess, never been to NI.
Then straight down the M62 you have Bury metro and then batley - then york if they ever get a track sorted.

In 10th they don't really have many big meetings that I can think of - outside of all the regionals, nationals etc.. no big one-off meetings, those are usually in winter.
CML raceway might hold a big meeting sometime this year - but no clue as to when and it IS a bit of a trek for you, but worth it.


In terms of taking photos, most of them are pretty good- some of the 'regional tracks' that are on flat grass are not so good. but the permenant tracks usually are.. Kidderminster (see the photos from sunday) is one of the good ones, since there is some nice dirt areas and elevation changes so you can get some dramatic shots.
Southport I don't find to be that good for photos, the track is half in shade and it is hard to get in a good position, no real jumps to shout about.. but hey, its a damn sight better than a school hall, so you'll probably love it!
