I rode my M5 Low Racer at Betteshanger yesterday. It's a really nice track with some fast sections, but the tarmac was littered with small stones, particularly at the mountain bike trail crossings. Better bring a broom on race day!

Parking charges mention per day and also per visit so I’m not entirely clear whether those camping will be charged £5 or £10 when they pay for parking when they leave on Sunday morning.
Also worth noting that if you pop out for supplies and drive back in you will be charged again!

Did anyone leave a BHPC, short sleeved, full zip top at the Bettesanger track today? Let me know if it is yours. Heather

My race on Saturday summed up in 4 seconds. *Naughty word... turn sound down if there are children present.

Everyone had disappeared by turn 3. Then it was just 20 minutes of watching the mirror and trying to keep out of the way. I should have fitted a second mirror on the left!!! LOL
