I can definitely confirm it is a (w)hole lot smoother than it was.
The kick-up from the concrete path going uphill onto the straight has gone, the exit from the bridge over the ditch can now be taken flat out, the table-top entry is now very gentle and most of the ripples in the corners have also been smoothed out. There are a couple of corners which still have the ripples in them, but hey this is off-road after all.
The amount of soil that has gone into the repairs, the subsequent rolling and the large amount of grass seed that has been spread around over the past month means that it will be a great track for the regional on the 20th May.
The current layout avoids most of the repaired areas, so it should have settled down well, especially with the recent rain, and will be an interesting challenge for all the drivers next week when the new full circuit is opened up.
