Decent little track Lydden

Chews up front tyres tho hey

Front left is pretty much gone now lol, to be expected from that track lol.

Didn't get out of third the entire day haha

Does lydden hill chew up track tyres or just road tyres?

Probably both Jack, it's a very abrasive surface

Both. You can see how rough and uneven some parts of the track are in my videos, particularly the Devils Elbow and the North Bend.

Is that where Top Gear did the rallycross last episode?
I bet that f***s up the surface a bit.

it didnt really destroy my track tyres when i did the session at BHP

Yeah, Top Gear use it occasionally (RallyX items, bus race, taxi race). I don't think the RallyX affects the surface too much, it's basically the type of asphalt they used to surface it originally, it's just very abrasive.

My tyres are still OK, the front left is pretty worn but still legal - that was after 3 sessions (45 minutes total) on track.

Looking forward to being back down there for BHP

This track couldn't really be any further from me. 360 miles

Its a treck from Birmingham let alone any further north than that!

It is a longggggggggg way down!!!!

Just watched the videos. It seems a pretty boring track with corner after corner and no space to stretch your legs and really have a good blast. Donington is a good track.

Without driving it its difficult to make a proper assumption. I much prefer the technical aspect of cornering, finding the right lines and when to put the power down rather than four courners and four straights, or god forbid, an oval.
