Full dap to Mr Devil really.

I handed him the handy-cam and said 'here's the record button - make it up as you go' and he nailed it.

So far no-one has lasted more than the first week of the apprenticeship. Wardrobe issues.

Understand what you're saying but looks much better in person. If someone does make it to the wall they wouldn't hit it at any sort of steep angle, just a glancing blow. Appears acceptable to me and inline with overseas tracks (remember it does have FIM approval).

You have mail. :-)

Shame there was no bike or helmet cam footage. I would like to see the track from the riders perspective.

Have that for you next week. I had a helmet cam with me - but it was too wet when we set up and there was no way he was stopping :oi-grr:

Dave I have a Hero Cam, fish eye, model, which I can bring up for you, records in a good easy to use Format and downloads in a almost TV quality, I will bring it to the track and mount it front rear top of bottom of whatever you need.
Will bring those gloves for you to.
