Hi chaps, I've got an image of the Sen Circuit at Bedford,

I know where the start/finish line is, then into a pretty quick left/ right chicane.

Are the corners numbered or named, in essence from the start line can some one give me an idea of gear selection at or before apex of each corner going round! With modern corner counting I count 12 apex points, on a map of track? The last chicane for instance im counting that as 3 corners!!!??? L/R/L,,, then the final left before start straight! I'd just like to get an idea of corner entry speed,, obviously conditions would dictate but general idea would be good. Road based tyres! Thanks boys.

I usually turn up unprepared.

After the ring last summer, everything else must be easy peasy, (famous last words!).

Alun, you learn the track, I'll follow you for the first few laps smile

Some help that is, you roaring up behind me, you know how you have a van with all the spares in at cart/ bike meets, we could do with a Tvr van! Come on Peter give me the run down for a complete twits gear change selection, Id really like to know what I gotta slow too, my brakes ain't great. Entry speed?!!! Gear gives clear indication. I don't want to spend all morning trying to remember? Nah you'll lead me up a path, I'll find a vid! Lol.

Should I recieve something in the post re track info, passes or the like! Confirmation of our booking? Don't want to turn up and find my banks refused payment, lol!
