At the 2004 national the track was run as Richard suggests, turning 180 deg right on the exit to the banking. It was a very fresh layout.

On another tack, the track can be run the opposite way round. The banked corner is awesome in this format, the car squats down into the exit giving a 'slingshot' out. It's very, very rare that the club drivers will run that way round, I'm not sure if it's due to the loss of some of the 'local-knoledge' advantage. Last time I was there when this was done one of the top club drivers packed up and went home, unhappy that it was the 'wrong way round'.
This may be ideal for Saturday when many of the local drivers will be in the non-region part of the meeting.
