We have been over today and started making some changes to the track ready for next season

Were digging out just infront of the rostrum to make the up and down ramps on the wall the same height, also adding a jump after the wall ride

The wall is going to be just a tad steeper

We've got a big digger going in tommorow to move the dirt, then need to sculpt the new jumps and replace astro then lay a new track, all depends on weather to when we get it finished.

We only really had 1 big downpoor just fine rain most of day.

Have Silverstone put in fot National next year ?????

Once that place is finshed and the track has settled it will in my mind be one of the best venues around (overall)..
