Hi members – it’s been a long while since the last newsletter, still waiting for some good news to report…… (April) …….. still waiting…… (May) ……… still waiting …… (June) ……oh well, here goes!

 

Of course, big changes to the track just before the last club day caught many riders by surprise early on Sunday morning.

Most of the feedback we have had about the changes have been positive, and we had no serious problems with any of the new parts of the track. The changes have also had the desired effect of slowing down a couple of high speed areas without sufficient runoff and have also reduced the noise somewhat. We will continue to make minor adjustments from time to time to improve the layout.

Due to the major nature of the changes, we decided to run a full 5 lap / 10 minute practice and therefore only had time to run 2 rounds of races.  While everyone actually had the same amount of time on the track as normal, we will be reverting to 3 rounds for the next club day, albeit with fewer laps due to the increased lap times.  As you all probably know, we only have between 9 am and 4pm to fit the entire program in so we will try the following format:

3 laps practice.

Unlimited 2 x 5 laps

All others 3 x 3 laps

Div 1&2  - 3 x 8 minutes.

It is imperative that we keep the program going during the day to prevent any further cutting of laps and/or races. Obviously, if someone is injured we will have unavoidable delays. Otherwise, do what you can to get off the track at the end of your event promptly so we can get the next one started.
