Thought the old pits were still there. One of my favourite viewing spots.

The track was redone before last year, was pretty good! The old pits were still there, smelt beautiful. Dont know how much its changed now though.

Reporting in sir! The new kart track is darned good but of course every positive has a negative, so the usual camping has gone to that great circuit in the sky. if I think about it I'll take a picture or two. I am currently in mourning for my cars, since I won't see either for a month or three and am seeking solace in the amber liquid.

Thanks Sir

Scottish wine is also an excellent medicine- this is a particular favourite of mine...

I suddenly remembered as I was passing that you'd asked me for photos of what has happened. So here they are:-

Firstly, this is as you approach from Beauséjour. Where there was an open expanse there is now a big screened-of fence



Secondly, this is taken from the rear entrance to the Bugatti circuit by the roundabout. There is now one gert big parking area where the Danes camped. And a lovely lake on the left.



The old karting pits still exist but all fenced off since there are now two circuits. I can't be sure, but it seems that there is no way to access it. Here's the new building:-

Anyone else up for a race over over the weekend? I've just challenged Synchromesh to a rematch of our epic BUKC battle, and we need more people to make a proper race!

Last year we had to buy tickets from the new building then go over to the old pits and get kitted up there.
