I have to say I am inclined to agree with you.....we started racing at buckmore in october last year, I would say its only downfall is the slope in the paddock, it does cause havoc, and once my trailer nearly rolled off while maneuvering it into position - gulp. Otherwise I feel the updated circuit is just phenomenal in terms of new foam barrier and run-off areas now tarmac'd, its a pleasure to run there

I have also had other issues with the circuit related to the state of honda cadet standing starts, whereby jump-starts were all too common, I contacted the BMKC club directly, they forwarded me onto Steve Holman the circuit manager and we had some very constructive dialogue, and the problem was fixed, even John Surtees opinion was sought, the upshot was at the last MSA meeting the lighting start procedure was correctly run to MSA standards, plus the start procedure was explained in drivers briefing, the result not a jump-start in sight.

Overall my point being, send your suggestions / complaint to BMKC and they will listen to you......I believe there are even more upgrades planned, but I have to say flattening the paddock does sound a biggy!
