  3. Donnington park - classic circuit !
    Spent many a happy weekend there over the years .
    Used to look forwards to the transatlantic races when all the top Americans came over for Easter , Schwantz , Rainey , Mamola etc .
    Most memorable race was probably in the late `70s watching Sheene and Katayama battling for a whole race which resulted in both getting well out of shape , sliding and wheelying into each other as they crossed the line for a dead heat - proper racing ! :thumbsup:

    :hattip:

  4. Can't wait for the new circuit in Wales its a lot closer for me but it means I need to renew my passport and be up to date with my inoculations.
     
  5. Raced there, crashed there, got drunk there. :D:p
    But then that pretty much every circuit in the UK. :rolleyes::oops:
