"It's really flat......"

.......I mean really flat. You can see just about everywhere from just about anywhere.

I've driven this once back in June 2001 and it pee'd with rain all day. However, being a Scot and used to driving Knockhill you get to enjoy driving in the w...

"A lot better that i was expecting."

I booked this last minute & wasn't expecting much from an Ex-Airfield.
I was WRONG, a real combination of fast sweepers & tighter technical corners.

"Exciting in the wet!"

I've only ever raced there (twice) in the sort of rain you only get in Yorkshire. It was great fun in the wet, and I'd guess it would be even more fun in the dry.

Getting Sunny right is rewarding, and taking the Jim Clark Esses flat is fun too....

"Excellent track - I really love Croft"

recommended review

Croft really seems to suit the Cerbera and/or my driving, so I love the track which contains a couple of my favourite corners anywhere. It is, of course, totally flat so anyone looking for some crests and dips will be dissapointed. Good landscaping, sur...

"fast and safe, not particularly challenging"

splendid track, with some long and fast straights. Ideal for TVRs

Plenty of run-offs for safety, too.
