Just got an email from Focused saying there will be 3 days at Valencia next April. Anyone thinking of doing it?

#5Jerez is my favourite.
It's fast, lots of fast flowing corners and has a great rythm to it. Although the track has 3 hairpins, it doesn't feel stop / start at all. The 2 straights aren't that long and the back straight is entered via a long-ish right hander that goes over a blind crest - so you can give yourself a run up by getting that right.
End of the lap features 2 VERY fast right handers, I find I make up a bit of time against the faster bikes though there, it's curb to curb and favours the brave.
Typing that has made me realise what a disaster last week was.
Oh, and the hotels are 5 minuts from the paddock,
Parc Algar is great in another way, it really does make Cadwell look flat! Despite having a massive crash there, I still rate it most highly - the crash was pure rider error in the wet. One thing about Parc Algar that is tough on a SD is the main straight - it's mahoosive! I call it the motorway section.

#6The parc Algar straight is entered through a corner a bit like clearways from the Brands GP track. It's a fast corner, onto a long straight, and of course, you can't see the exit when you tip in.
On 16/39 gearing, I was just short of the limiter in 6th, 155MPH.

#16I'm sure you'll have a great time.
It's Europe's premier car park circuit.
