Crail Raceway
Does anyone have some pics of the layout of Crail raceway? Can't see much in the pics on their website or on google.
Also any info on what the track is like would be gratefully recieved as I'm thinking of practising on it next year. Cheers |

Re: Crail Raceway
Crail raceway is also known as Crail Airfield, so yup, I'd say thats it.

Re: Crail Raceway
East Fortune? East of Edinburgh is a proper road-racing circuit. Never been for racing there so no details.
Whats your 250? A Parallel or a "V"? Just a nosey bugger thats all   One day I WILL have a stinkwheel again!

Re: Crail Raceway
I haven't been to Crail for a little while, however I dont think they will have made any major changes. Last time I was there they had a 1/4 mile drag strip with electronic timing. At the end of the strip you (preferably) slowed down and took a sharp left and followed a triangle road layout back to the start and lined up for your next run.

I'm not used to the type of engine though so I need practise. I use the engine braking a lot on my SV in the corners, so I need to learn to use the brakes (which badly need bled and new pads - winter project) Quote:
