Well, i registered on the knockhill forum and posted about the cones issue.
http://knockhill.motorsportforum.com/fo ... did=119957
I think its in everybody's interest to register and put your views across, good or bad.
I dont think i'll be at knockhill much, whilst it still resembles the M8

I quite like the ones that show you the entry - apex - exit points ..... kinda helpful for us track newbies.... plus I always enjoy stu etc. collecting the exit ones with a nice slide ...
The full blown route guiding ones were a bit of a pain last time..... especially if you pulled off line to let a faster car past and then couldn't get back in again.... like when the guys in the red and black elises were racing and being overly agressive imho.

well done. who's next people??
come on, first they take away smoking in pubs, now they put cones on the track. Whats next, make everyone drive S2's so as not to make passers by jealous?? COME ON PEOPLE.
(i would just like to say i'm not a smoker, and i approve of the ban
)

Entirely agree. I have no intention of driving KH if they have cones on the track surface.
I could of course do everybody a favour and wipe them out whilst I still have the old bodywork on, but then I would only get black flagged.
Don’t know what Ian is thinking about, but it will not work, and what is worse it will seriously affect track day bookings, ie SIDC, MexiTowers, Bruntys, Dreadnought, etc.

I've recently sent Sasha a wee e-mail pointing her in the direction of the forum.
It was to do with the rear towing eyes but hopefully she'll read this too.
To be fair to Kh though the podium marshal called Kevin up to the pit box on Monday and asked him for his views and those of any other regulars.
IMHO the entry cones aren't an issue, it's the exit cones which I find off putting and unnecessary.

another vote against the cones !
As Mac pointed out above the podium marshal asked for my opinion on them - so presumably KH management are still receptive to input.
