Around and around they go.....

Around and around they go.....

If you were to propose a Motorsport speed event that simply involved racing around a football pitch sized narrow, square, tarmac track you might struggle to generate interest amongst motorbike riders.

But if you were to add a couple of technical chicanes, tricky cambers on the corners and a format that only offers a single flying lap to bring all the elements together then it becomes a much more interesting challenge!

The bonus is that a rider gets many chances to get back out on the tarmac.

So what I've just described is the format of the GMC&CC Twisty Sprint at The Track and the latest running of the event was yesterday.

I spoke to quite a few of the competitors and the general response was that the technical event should keep its place in the calendar. Variety is the spice of life... even in Motorsport it seems.

I only had a short time to grab a few pics as there was a Music Festival - and many beers - awaiting my attention! My Twisty Sprint pics are now online here:
