I did it on 1st sept, and I really enjoyed it.


But I still prefer Mallory

 

mallory is the worst track i have done, it cant be compared to the likes of oulton cadwell and anglesey and others i have done

well been saying it for a while and i was indeed due a crash :lol:


went into redgate and got on the power a little too soon and the rear slid out then gripped threw me out the seat enough for my dad to see a good 500 yards away behind a barrier, managed to save that and hit the grass when the front tucked on me and i went rolling in the gravel.


bike and myself are fine, luckily it wasnt a high side which it nearly was....called it a day early as the rain was on and off and i had slicks on so thought sod that...


will for sure be going again, its a scary quick track :twisted:

glad you're ok!


is the track back to the same as before?


I did just over a lap on a friends of donnington park evening (freebie with a mate)


then someone crashed at redgate, the ambulance had to go, and that was that!


I thought craner curves were awesome! but goddards was impossible! :lol:


I'm actually glad it got stopped cos I'd have killed myself! :lol:

never been on a track since! :lol:

They have changed fogarty's esses, so now you hit redgate at 30mph more than before.

And also they've added huge lumps of gravel which seemed to destroy everyone's bike who lowslided

yeah all is fine ian, think i got a bit of whip lash from summersaulting in the gravel but part from that all good...


i couldnt get a good line through redgate which stopped me getting good drive out, need to go back again and sort that out...


craner curves is scary as....hard on the gas all the way after redgate all the way to the old hairpin...

you have to do it, its a quality track i found it quite hard to learn everything kept being a surprise if that makes sense....was if the next time round the track had changed :lol:

Soon as payday is here it's getting booked :wink:


Have ordered SBK09 for the xbox to try and help learn the track a bit beforehand.


I'm liking the sound of the track, but not the bit about the gravel lumps. I'll be needing to ride home at the end!
