Cockpit view of the Top Gear track

[Matt UK]

I've spent years only knowing the Top Gear track from the shots they show.
But realised I've never seen what that track looks like to actually drive.

And here it is:

That actually looks like a really dull track to drive.

I would imagine most airfield type tracks would be pretty dull.

Caterham sounds ace though

Valid point.

I've driven it, the follow through feels a lot narrower than it looks on TV! Otherwise, not a particularly exciting track.

This one looks ok to me. Short track, few decent turns.

I think i'll disagree with you on that one, and ask anyone who drives the Marham track days and i'm sure they will disagree too.

This one actually appears on the BBC Top Gear website complete with an animated map and little comments on each corner:

I have done the stigs lap about 8 times at Dunsfold, it feels NOTHING like what you see on TV quite disorientating the first time. Is a good track though, I did keep getting distracted by the random planes all over the place, especially when they were moving.
