Is it really necessary to relay the astro, or is it okay still? Afterall, there has been a burnt patch on the central hill for years which nobody has ever noticed.... bet you'll ask me where now

The astro was replaced today from the jump to the bricks. Made landing from the jump and braking so much easier.

Sorry, but im gonna have to disagree. Only for the moment tho as im sure that as soon as it wears in a bit it will be ace again. At the moment all the new astro is (as predicted) is really slipery. I found it really hard to find a consistant line into all new bits. I hope that it will grippen up soon tho.

Thats just my two penny worth

Loving the fact that we can run a few more tracks now tho, national should be ace, get yourselves along and see what you think. Would be nice to have a few more people supporting the local clubs especially when people have been putting a lot of effort in (not me by the way)

The jump at the back of the track, at the start of the 'back-straight', is now better. As the second part of the feature is now a table-top it can be taken slower and more under control. I can now get over it without a breakage most times round.

Danny's right, the new stuff is shiny, green & slippy but I'm sure it will grip up once it gets some good dirt on it.

Has the astro-turf mine at the top of the track now run dry?
