Yes I read that, pit buildings, a control tower, hospitality areas and spectator accomodation were also mentioned. Work is apparently going to start this year.
Even if they only do half of what they say it will be great. I may even become a Blyton convert myself |

This is very good news - rumours have been flying round for a while. The hope is that they will look to build a track that might ultimately be good enough for the ERC. Blyton is in a good central location and because its in the middle of nowhere the planning restrictions should be a bit more relaxed.
Anyone know why its not on the BRC calendar this year? Just not popular enough with drivers or is there more to it? |

I second that about the maggots!
Flushing toilets would do me as well! I hope it happens as it would be great, my favorite rallycross circuit to race on by miles. If they are going to do all this, they might as well make it possible to run circuit events as well to raise funds. |
