Wellington Bucket/Motard new track a success!

**F5 Dave** · 12th February 2007, 08:31

First meeting was sunday 11th. Calendar to be prepared by Bayden etc soon.

The Skidway (or skidpan or summit) driving facility located on Watsons farm past the Brooklyn wind turbine.

I thought the track would be too small, but it is fine & flows well. Bigger would always be better, but it is a fun track to ride. There is some concern about the tyres stacked so high, but we can always attend to that.

Thanks to Bayden & the owners. Yay we have a track again!!!

sidenote; don't anyone go up there by themselves as would screw up everything & the owners have the place in use a lot anyway.

It's the Slip Way. And it's great in either direction.

Lower tyre walls would be good. Anyone got pics yet? Wilber had his camera.

Clockwise was more flowing, well only the entry into the far corner was odd anticlockwise, would be dodgy in the wet.

Saw Tex taking a semi aerial pic of it from the road in.

Great venue,well thought out
There wont be any noise issues
Access will be a prick if it is wet
How did Bayden find out about it??

I think Kerry got the info in slowly via osmosis. Pics make it look small as you can't see the corners hidden in the tyre walls.

it looks quite good,
Great to hear it was a success.
Weather looked awsome, was quite annoying I didnt make it but dont have my money coming in at the momment so no money means no racing.
