Default Best TC track in the UK?

I just thought I would see what everyone's thoughts are on their favourite circuit in the UK for Touring Car or 1/12th

You'll get a load of different answers to this, largely based on location. Stonehaven locals probably don't have much experience of Eastbourne, and visa versa

I think in the UK we're very lucky and have some awesome tracks. When the Americans see videos of our nationals they can't believe what we race on over here.

Even a small outdoor track beats the crap out of bashing your car into wooden boards in some warehouse or sliding around a car park.

If this is about what I think it could be about, please don't copy Moto Arena....

Anyway, onto the point.

My favourite is WLRC. Its the right size for 1/10th TC, the layout you need a quick and stable car through the sweepers but one that stops with pinpoint accuracy for the twistys. The track is wide enough to race side by side without the guy infront having to make a mistake, yet the markers make sure you know when you've got it wrong.

Good burger van too. Thats most important.

I used to love Bedworth too, though haven't driven a TC around it for a long time.

In terms of layout, it would be Mendip for me.

Bedworth, Sundays, and summer Wednesday evenings, practice sessions galore, great bunch of lads, and the track was just brilliant to drive, and kept in great condition!
