Spot bo!!ock on mate, exactly what i'm trying to say...........

Watch any online vids of the Cacus, Silverstate Nitro race, and any other big race in the states, or even Yatabe arena - That's exactly what i'm picturing but the benfit of using Tarmac or concrete is it means you can use a track like that OUTSIDE in the UK, you get the same sort of grip, proper drainage, and basically USA style racing on a hard packed track that will rubber in properly

It won't have the random odd bumps you get with more traditional UK tracks, but the US style hard packed tracks don't have these either - that's what i'd like to see over here, even if there's just one in the UK.
