 Old Hall out
|
 The Avenue
|
 At the crest of The Aveue, descending into Cascades
|
 Fosters is the coned-off section, Cascades peels away to the left
|
| | | | |
 Lakeside
|
 Island, coned off
|
 Shell bend. Deceptively sharp right-hander, and banked like an oval
|
 The approach to Foulston's chican
|
| | | | |
 The view from Hilltop. Cascades is to the right in the distance, and it's one long blast to...
|
 The Knickerbrook chicane. The cones straight-on mark the run-off area. The chicane is not used on the shorter circuit.
|
 The exit of Knickerbrook, and a view up to Clay Hill
|
 Over Clay Hill, into Watertower
|
| | | | |
 And then on to Druids, a tricky double apex
|
 Warwick Bridge, formerly Bailey Bridge
|
 Lodge. A sharp dip before a banking right-hander. Scene of last-minute out-braking
|
 Exit of Lodge, to Deer Leap
|
| | | | |
 And the start/finish line. Or the mashals' parking-up spot for sign-on

What surprises me about the photos is how flat the circuit looks. When driving around the track at road speed, it becomes immediately apparent that there is not a sigle corner that is flat or simple; every bend has an odd camber, dip or bank. | Added by paul 19/08/2002 08:49
