I wont be back.... (in the Elise anyway

). I can understand why they've done it...... but there is no need for it. Nobody i've seen drives round the track on the inside. I found them off putting at the last HM as if the car infront hits one and fires it onto your path, it'll make a braw mess of your clam. Plus, it was easy for slower cars to get out the way (after the chicaine for example) as they could stay right. But now they are forced to the left then have to swerve to the right and try and get back left for Clarks. i found mysef watching and looking at the cones instead of the track. Track drivin gives more confidence as there is a big area before you hit something if it goes a bit tits up. But with the cones it feels like the track is very narrow.

well I couldnt see any need for the cones on the exit of the corner, like was said above, you could pull out of the way more safely if the exit was clear. I think they would go with that if we asked nice and explained it in that way.
Well it moves... might as well make the most of it....

Just watched Brunty's video and they're the same as the HM day I did earlier in the year. I'm off to make my feelings known on the KH forum.

That's what I meant, hit the wrong key it seems.
