I was going to post up there once the website and links are up and running. Don't want to pop the cork before the guests arrive if you know what I mean.

Regarding North vs south vs whole track issue. While I prefer the south or the whole track... The south track is quite technical with 13 turns and the whole track is about 21 turns. A one day track event would not be suitable for drivers to learn the whole track (north south combined) and would be challenging for people to learn the 13 turns of the south and their quirks.

The North track is simple to learn but requires patience and car control through the first few turn's that all link to each other. There are 2 good passing zones under braking and a straight that cars with more HP will be able to pass on. Most of the turns are late apex turns and 2 of them will make you pay if you turn in too early.

I am working on in-car video of laps around the north course. I hope to have a link, or better have it on the event web-site when it launches in the new year.
