Looks very nice, will have to try it at some point in time (when I get a proper bike)

That does look great! Sod taking an MZ250 round there though.. it'd take an eternity, but I guess the short circuit version almost mimics the old circuit..?

It's still got that long straight but would have levelled things a bit tween my cibber and those high top speed bikes. 
Guess that goes for you falco types too.

I always loved it - some of the fastest /bumpiest / scariest corners anywhere with Richies, Coram and the Bombhole.
Looks like an improvement though.

Boring!!!?
Maybe not the best circuit to watch at if thats what you mean? To ride it was very good though with lots of fast corners so one at least had a chance to make back some of the ground lost down the long strait.

The straight was a nause on the MZ. had time to compose winning speeches (just in case the leader didnt have time) and filing tax returns whilst travelling down it. Then when I'd finished that I had time to contemplate the meaning of life before flicking it left then slamming on the brakes..
The circuit is/was brilliant and could be as dangerous as a spectator if you chose the right bit at the bombhole..
Reckon the new additions will make it even more sellable to the international series, which can only be good!

According to the local news the new tarmac was going down today, with Palmer and Brundle in attendance.
