Default CML Raceway! its cool!

Just got back from the first race at the new CML Raceway, I have to say the track was excellent as well as the hospitality. Great stuff.
got a few photos and a report to finish off.

It is near Newbury. The track is both astro turf and tarmac. It has a very funny type of grip when damp. Very very good though

Really good track, and fairly close to me (about 1 hour)
Really good hospitality from Lee and his family.

And Jimmy got a photo of my car this time!!

don't put your car down in the middle of the straight during practice, or if you do make sure it is in front of the world champion, guaranteed a picture then:smile:

I think it was a beginner, they just put their car down there to start practise - not the best idea as the outside of the straight is the best line for the corner at the end of it....
