Oh Yes indeadie. 100% for me. The international track is a joy
to drive on and will give a cyclekart driver a chance to really
feel the pleasure of driving their CK. It has a selection of
fast, tight, left and Right hand corners with a couple of good
size straights that will give you a chance of feeling of being
at one with your machine.

Yeah we have been given just one date unfortunately Jay at this
great price so that’s a lot of driving and testing etc for the
money but not to be missed if we can get the numbers

Andy and I were lucky enough to try the different circuits at
Whilton Mill yesterday and did quite a few laps. It was a great
experience and probably the best track I've driven my Cyclekart
on. It's a circuit that will give drivers a chance to really get
to know their machines and a feeling of euphoric joy while
driving what they've built.
The corners are flowing (even the tighter ones) and it doesn't
put too much strain on the CK or driver.
The Straight are just long enough to build a bit of speed with
good visibility of where to brake for the approaching turns.
There's plenty of run off if braking is a bit late but the track
has loads of grip and it's easy to slow down.
I'ts a very smooth surface and i didn't get bumped about in the
cockpit at all.
The pits are smooth tarmac with anchor points for anyone wanting
to take a gazebo. This makes for a nice environment
if you have to tinker with your CK.
I can only recommend people put their names down for this day as
I feel it could give them the driving experience
they would enjoy.
