We all have preferences, but out of curiosity, why do you prefer Croft to Oulton?d for noise limits, new Triumph won't pass there. Going to repack the exhaust soon. Fleegle said:

I just prefer the layout. Only corner I don't like is the hairpin at Croft, and the back section through the esses and Barncroft are amongst my favourite corners on any track. Also I think Oulton is more suited to 1000cc bikes. It's frustrating being there on a 600 only to be continuously out dragged on the straights making it difficult to pass people.

Ill deffo be up for some of these, fking unbelievable how many track days there are down south....aye right down south, If I'm home from offshore ill be up for most days at Oulton and Croft. Maybe the odd trip to Jerez.........
I just cannot be arsed with knockhill any more. If it was priced like cadwell at a £100 a day id go, but I refuse to pay £170-190 to ride the same circuit over, and over, and over.king unbelievable how many track days there are down south....aye right down south, If I'm home from offshore ill be up for most days at Oulton and Croft.

Unfortunately as its the only track day circuit in Scotland they can pretty much name there price and it will still be sold out almost every time, If the Salmond said they would build another couple of tracks if we voted yes then i'd have the whole family bribed down voting tomorrow hahaHOW5ER said:
