Forest Edge

[TomS]

Saw this on the internet www.fekc.co.uk . Does anybody know what the circuit is like? Is it the one by Thruxton car circuit or is that Thruxtons own circuit?

[Paul V]

I was there last Saturday for the practice. It is not that near Thruxton, it is just west of the A34.

First impressions are that it is a good circuit with a decent set of corners.
The infrastructure is basic but I suspect will improve with time (didn't try the loos).

I am looking to try my son out in Cadets, with the aim of doing the local championship, so any advice/help would be useful.

[#15 tkm 4/]

nice circuit, weve been there a few times testing and the layout is deffently set up for the tkm 4 strokes, so i was happy withovertaking everyone

its a nice circuit like Paul said and the layout is challenging yet fast (fast only if you do it right) and its in Barton Stacey (i think)

When you say the layout is definatly set up for the tkm 4 strokes, why is it?

Looks like a nice circuit, but very windey in places.

I race there in minimax and was there for the first meeting that it was open when i was in cadet. Its a gud circuit with a very long straight. Its very gud 4 125 g/box which my dad races in. Its not actually that windy in mini and cadet u take most coners flat except hairpin nd top coner at the end of straight. Gearbox are lucky because they can miss the chicane

Raced there last season, really good track and helpful organisers. The old Forest Edge track down at Bournemouth was my faveourite tho, just 'cos of the 180 degree Parabolica. Go of there and you'd know about it (as I did to my cost!).
