Thanks for the update, and well done for Sunday. thumbs It's always nice to get something, amazes me how many generally take part in Sprints and Hill climbs, Wiscombe regularly has over 100 entries in different classes, generally four 40-60 second blasts and then it's all over, and only a few get a cup. It's all about the taking part, that's the fun of it. drive

Update 61 - Debden Sprint - Race 2
A quick post of an in car vid of my fastest lap (101.56) on the new course layout at Debden, unfortunately clipping a cone near the end meant that I picked up a 5 second penalty but was still an exciting lap - the track layout really keeps you busy!!

There is nowhere for spectators on this circuit - so this is the best vid I had to show the circuit. It was so sunny it was a wonderful day!

Hope you enjoy!!

Great video and the cones looked a nightmare to navigate.

Looks like fun, tricky cone chicanes that came up quick, thanks for sharing, gives me an idea of what to expect if I take the plunge next year. cheers

Many people were commenting on the difficulties of seeing cones... the runway tracks do suffer slightly from their own scale which results in what from above looks like a nicely laid out track looking like a sea of cones when you are down low.

I suppose thats why the initial runs are comparatively slower than practice runs at circuits proportionate to timed runs in the afternoon - one thing I did find is that - at 90+ the cones can be a little distracting as your eyes are flashing across them more than on a straightforward circuit.

Still picked up First in class, best prepared car present on the day and a time pretty competative against some seemingly much more serious machinery.
