Even though i didn't do to well, I had a really great day today.
A big thanks to the South Lakes guys! I think the school bumping you off your normal plot worked in your favour as that hillside had great natural features.... and gave marshals a work out to!
With regards tyres.... bot dots are the future; something that will deter and impede corner cutting but not get cars stuck.
As Stu says you can cut down and cap the tyres, or use something like heavy bin lids pegged down. Maybe even sandfill some of the firehose and peg it down in a curved profile.
With regards turnout I think there might of been a few that shyed off because of the forecast and gloomy skies this morning..... if so they made the wrong choice, the weather was absolutely glorious
