It should take about 2 hours to get there as its a fairly easy drive. I have family down that way not far from the track and the local roads are prety good.
Its about 15 to 20mins I believe from junction 10 of the M20 and really very direct.

I for one won't be camping at Brooklands still recovering from Camping at Eastbourne , I think I prefure to have a few hours good sleep in a Bed rather than No sleep in a tent unless there is a reasonable B&B with a Bar in it close by them I may be convinced to stay over :D
With the lenth of that track looks like gearing could be everything :shock:

If they use the dog-leg halfway down the straight, I suspect gearing for brushless will be very close to the normal ratio you use at the moment. If they use the whole of the straight, just reverse the spur and pinion sizes. :lol:

Hey guys.
If they use the dog-leg,which from my understanding they will.That still makes the straight 50m from apex-apex.Thats 15m longer than Snetts,and 20m longer than Colchester.
Apparently low 4's as a starting place for 10.5...... :shock:
Paul. :wink:

Well It looks like a great place to race and is nice and wide as well! That straight still seems to be very long to me though!!!

Just to let you all know, Sam won't be racing at Brooklands.
It might in fact be the end of his racing all together!!!
Watch out for some RC bargains possibly coming soon. :smt010
