Always sad to hear about tracks closing and a general feeling of decline in the sport, we only have 3 tracks in the UK worth running on, 2 of those are under threat of closing, SPR however are spending £££££'s on laying a new full concrete track and seem to be going from strength to strength, should see some records this year being blown away, the asphalt track was capable as it was and held a 3.89 run from a TF car but was somewhat inconsistent and hard to tune to....good times ahead for 2018 I hope for the racers, be interesting to see how much faster/consistent it will be with our weather.
