Re: The brand new Anglesey GP Circuit : July 7th
I'm sure that will be quite good too Gary
Who knows, maybe a British winner this year, that chap Hamilton is a superstar!
Cheers,
TB

Re: The brand new Anglesey GP Circuit : July 7th
Oops, I clicked on the wrong area
Meant to have it in the North West which seemed the least bad match of the options available.
Maybe a kindly Mod could move it for me to the apporpriate area?

The new circuit promises to be even better than the old one.
Everybody who's seen it has run out of superlatives to describe it. The aerial views don't really do it justice, as they don't bring out the changes in elevation that make it much more interesting than any old airfield can ever be.
There are some photos from ground level at:

(although there seems to be a problem with them at the moment.)

Re: The brand new Anglesey GP Circuit : July 7th
I'll probably turn up too, for some camera duties and to have a look at the place. It'd be rude not too, it's only just over an hour away. See ya there

Re: The brand new Anglesey GP Circuit : July 7th
Coastal circuit layout looks good too.
You can see all the layouts, including the old one (now defunct)
at:
http://bookatrack.com/-pV?9
..just move the mouse cursor over the name of the layout you want to see.
Cheers,

Re: The brand new Anglesey GP Circuit : July 7th
Nearly time for a trip down the A55........... I'm definitely going, to give my new camera an outing, see if I can pick up some decent pics.....
I've heard some really good reports about the new track, mostly from bike racers who've been there for a testing day, but it sounds absolutely fantastic
See you there folks!

Re: The brand new Anglesey GP Circuit : July 7th
have a good time fella  be careful on the A55 - north wales police are still operating a "zero tolerance" crusade on speeding. very few police patrol cars (no fixed cameras either) but they are over zealous buggers if they do catch you

Re: The brand new Anglesey GP Circuit : July 7th
Hi Ode, see you there then.
I'll be hard enough to miss I suspect!
Some serious machinery is listed as going, with several Ariel Atoms! (gulp)
As it turns out there are only two cars going from Dublin now, my own red 156 GTA, and the deceptively fast track special Mx-6 (grey) that has featured in a few video clips from here.
Welcome to a few pax laps btw, in either car I'm sure.
If you haven't been in a stripped out track day car before the Mazda might be a bit of an experience!
I have seen some video footage of the new track, and it looks bloody brilliant
Cheers,
TB

I'm not a doctor - but I really do recommend braking later

Re: The brand new Anglesey GP Circuit : July 7th
AAAAARrrrrrrrgggggghhhhh! I couldn't make it, sorry chaps! Got carried away doing housey-type stuff and by the time it was done it was about 2pm, the fun would have been coming to an end by the time I'd have got there...... gutted to miss it all, dying to see the new look Anglesey
Hope you had a good day guys, will maybe meet up at another one sometime  | |
