What a great circuit this is... its long, loads of corners and elevation changes, its going to take a bit of getting used too..

Are you using the full track or coming down the corkscrew?

They only use the International layout for track days...........it's been years since they ran a track day on the Coastal Layout although the vast majority of club racing runs on the shorter layout.

Ah ok. The one Jim Whit double header I did was ~2016, that was coastal.

Stuartb - you most likely find that it'll come quite quickly as it's fairly easy to learn - watch the last corner as it's quite off camber and you can carry speed further than you think on the back "straight" as the hill is so steep. Another place to watch is the right at the top of the hill - after the slow hairpin - as it goes off camber if you drift to the left as you exit the corner.

Have fun.

I think I was on that and possibly that was the last time they ran that Coastal (the used to run Coastal one day, Int Gp the next) - NL run the bigger circuit as they can get more bikes on (60 per group) but I'm surprised that the JW days don't use it now and again with only 20 per group. Car track days use it all the time...............
 
Fantastic circuit to ride? but not much fun if the weather changes for the worse!

Bang on !.. First session I was all over the shop, second and third I was miles quicker... the change in elevation is pretty intense

Nice to meet you.
Weather looking promising for tomorrow.
 
Well got that wrong. Pish
Lol...I bailed early..I just new it wasn't going to improve.

I'm home 30 minutes ago, easy drive but quite a long way to go, definitely worth it, what a great circuit.

I'd guessed the weather would change quickly down there due to the location..yesterday was perfect.

I took my Long Lens and pretty sure I snapped you a few times coming on to the stop/start..l'll have a look through and let you know if I was lucky..
