Waterbeach, Cambs?

Hi All,

Does anybody have any experience of this circuit?

I have an event there next month, and its just occurred to me that I've no idea what to expect. Its only my second sprint so I'm still a touch on the nervous side

I've looked in the wiki and had a search on here, general internet searches and even a look for video's on youtube with no luck.

I will be the first to admit I'm an IT numbty though, so I've probarly missed something really obvious.

Any pointers or info would be great, cheers. I think it could be an airfield track by the way.

PS I have already posted this in hillclimbs/sprints section, but as the sprint events I am going to are run by a track day company, not the MSA, then I thought maybe this circuit is a track day venue more than a sprinting one. Mods please feel free to delete if I've done something wrong- apologies, I'm new

In the same boat as you Dan, have my second ever sprint and the first at that venue next month.
Any information would be gratefully received from me too.

Ex airfield, more recently used as an army base for engineering reg. Located between Cambridge and Ely. Never used it as a circuit so cannot really comment on the layout.

I will be there in my trusty ST202 Dan, did I see you at Barkston?
If Barry, the formula ford guru knows very little of the place then it can't be that challenging!

I live in Waterbeach , it is an old airfield and it is still the home of the 39 Engineer Regiment ( who specialise in runway repairs ! ) The runway has to be able to take landings . Don't know which part of the airfield the time trials are on - there are some nice smooth bits . I know the sprint bikes used to use it - might be worth trying there websites .

Regards

AL.
