Prolonged negotiations resulted in our club being provided with a new venue and enough money to establish a better circuit, with pit areas, new clubrooms, timing facilities and so on.
In a couple of weeks the 1400 metre (or 1 mile) circuit will hold its first event and although the clubrooms and timing tower are still concrete pads at ground level, the track and pit areas have been sealed and approved for competition.
At the last Working Bee at the track, I bolted a camera to the 124 AC coupe's rollcage and drove a lap to capture some video for those competiors unfamilar with the layout. Unfortunately it was raining, and I drove quite circumspectly so as not to make an everlasting fool of myself on Youtube
. But, I think you will be able to see what a magnificent circuit it will be to drive flat out on. Click on the link below to see the In-car footage.
