Re: Best UK track
Start using public roads as race tracks and your going to end up in big trouble or dead...... give that one a miss thanks.

Re: Best UK track
Anglesey is a great place no doubt, and ive had some fantastic days there. Its just a shame its so far away & the weather can be so unpredictable too.

Re: Best UK track
Indeed, the Anglesey weather is a bit on the binary side... I've only ridden the new layout once but raced the old circuit on numerous occasions, and the weather was either glorious, or bleak, wet and windswept... nothing in between. It illustrates the point that the only place you can build (or significantly upgrade) a circuit in the UK is in the middle of nowhere.
Here's a thought: the UK is allegedly embarking on a programme of new nuclear power station builds (I say allegedly as the Wylfa upgrade in Anglesey (ironically) is potentially falling through due to funding issues) - these are generally situated in relatively remote locations, away from major population centres, why not build circuits beside these places? They aren't all at the arse end of nowhere; Hinkley, Bradwell (Essex), Dungeness (Kent), Sizewell (Suffolk)...
