Road works at Brighton !!

Unfortunately more roadworks, or should I say Gas, Water etc. have made quite a nice bump to contend with about 5 metres off the start line. Enough to feel it in my Mitsubishi pick up!! So now your starts should be something like floor it - 5 metres -hard bump, 10 metres smooth bump and then you're away.

Can't see any records being broken - just parts from cars!!

Regards,

J.P

Re: Road works at Brighton !!

I understood that the council were going to install speed humps along Maderia Drive to stop the 'boy racers'.

Now that would be interesting! [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

Looks like the new BUMP is here to stay [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/frown.gif[/img]

Hoping they will move the course up the track(I mean road!!) a couple of metres.

Goods News!

Well at least I think so. Brighton council have pulled their finger out, and are making right the bumps etc. Feel sorry for the guys working there this morning, Force 6-7 Westerly with driving rain. Looks like they are also working on the infamous bump a little further up too!

Regards,
