Hi all,

I am thinking of doing Cadwell in July and was wondering if any of you have any tips for me ?

I have done Rockingham and Snetterton before and Brands is too expensive lol.

any tips of advise would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you

Ok, by the end of the start finish straight you should be at the top of 4th gear, knock it down a gear, no brakes and chuck it into the left hander, as you straighten up knock it down another cog and chuck it into the right hander, keep on the power and allow yourself to run out to the edge of the track before turning in again for the 2nd part of the corner at the brow of the hill. Hammer it down park straight and you'll be at the top of 5th, maybe 6th by the end, hard on the brakes to about 40mph in second gear round parks corner, get on the power and kick it up a gear before turning in for the next right, you can carry a lot of speed round this long corner! Just after you see the square of red? tarmac get over to the left of the track and brake a touch then chuck it through the gooseneck, it can sometimes feel like you're running wide as you come out of here but stay cranked over and you'll be fine. A squirt of power then hard on the brakes for mansfield, positive camber so yuo can carry a lot of speed round here, get on the power early and stay in the centre of the track ready for the chicane in 2nd gear, 1st if you're confident. Get on the power hard and head towards the mountain, don't change up from second, left, right then hard on the power and do a stand up wheelie over the mountain, give the crowd a wave as you pass. Still in second, get to the right of the track then chuck it in for halls bends, left, right, left then hard on the brakes for the hairpin. Get on the power and maybe kick it into 3rd then chuck it over into Barn, keep it smooth as you can lose the front easily here, then hammer down the straight towards the finish line.

If you did that perfectly like me then you'll be averaging about 1:37! Thumbs Up
