Overtaking
What are the best overtaking sports on th various tracks?
For Me Mallory - Round the outside of Gerrards Snet - Slipstreaming on the revitt and into Esses, also on the exit of Coram Brands - Up into the 'pin Lydden - on the exit of Paddock Anyone/where else? |

North bend hairpin at Lydden - loads of overtake attempts up there (with varying degrees of success). Into the devils elbow as well, and round the outside on Chessons - pretty much everywhere!
Druids at Brands (I think that's the right one! - top of the hill hairpin effort). Redgate and whatever the hairpin is called at Donington. |

Hairpin is a much better bet for Mallory.

Less risky round the outside at Gerards compared to the hairpin?
Gerards is 'exciting' just going round by yourself! |

a move on the inside of Devil's Elbow at Mallory can look stunning to the spectator

Best place at mallory is into the esses, inside, or better still round the outside. We should dig up that new chicane now.

One of the worst places - into the mountain at cadwell, since it almost always ends in tears (so I'm told !!!!).

Paddock at Brands.... if you make it
Craner Curves at Donington Copse at Silverstone Paddock at Lydden ... my favourite as there's no run-off and always requires a change of underwear |
