Would you prefer a rhythm section on the straight like this

With somewhere else on the track to start the finals, or just flat as most do now.

Hmmmm.....not sure about on the straight,where else can you get top(ish) speed??
I thinks it would be better on another part.

Peter that must have been your first effort when i wasn't there because the last few weeks, your rythmic straights have been much higher and longer than that....

It's not Jarrow ;)
I think the rules say there has to be a straight........
I'm with Dan here, both would be ideal :thumbsup:

Does it say a Flat straight though? :thumbsup:
That track looks spot on for indoor racing though, can't beat fast flowing jump sections

It says something like 'a straight x length with no significant changes in height' or something. ;)

14.7 The straight for starting finals, will be a minimum of 20 metres long, with no obstructions, including any form of jump, sudden rise or fall.
So as i read it, you would need another straight in there somewhere....:eh?:
with a few minor adjustments you can make it legal, heres one iv come up with. not sure if its convenient but from the photo i cant see anything wrong than a not much landing space after the jumps.
but at least itll be brca legal. shame to not hold a brca event on such a mint track.
what do u think?
