Circuit Info
Home of the British Automobile Racing
Club, Thruxton has the honour of boasting the highest
lap speed in Britain, so it's surely worth driving for
that alone.
Indeed due to moaning locals track
time at Thruxton is severely limited with just a handful
of race meetings and test sessions. A track day at the
circuit, therefore, is a rare thing.
Being another airfield circuit
Thruxton is a bit on the featureless side but typical of
the breed much of it is very fast indeed. Essentially
only the chicane and the Cambell/Cobb/Segrave complex
split up the flat-out sections. In fact over half the
lap can be taken with the throttle very nearly planted.
Magic moment
Church round the back of the circuit,
away from the spectators gaze is easily the most
memorable corner. This fast right hander will have your
car on the absolute limit and the infamous bump half way
through will certainly give you something to think
about. |
