Would't it be nice

If we had a circuit near us. There was talk of one being built just outside South Molton years ago but planning was refused.

I would settle for a road race circuit say launceston, holsworthy, stibbs cross and back through week st mary, works for the Irish so why not down here then when they se bike interest have a circuit built

cos they don't enploy fun police over there. it's aq case of - you knew it was dangerous when you started it, don't complain if you get hurt.

over here people having fun is against the law.

I think there are plans for a road circuit in Scotland as well,

I doubt any new tracks will ever be built. This country is to over populated, theres nowhere remote enough to get away with it without people whining about the noise.

Only place I can think that could possibly stand a chance is Longleat, because of the amount of land owned by the estate, although the Monkeys may put up a protest.

Just because they come from somerset doesn't mean they're not human.

The only monkeys that are not human around here are the apes that walk around somerset with trackies tucked into their socks, i'm sure they'll be too busy at the job centre signing on or in macdonalds getting a happy meal to notice if a circuit was built in somerset

Oh and Longleat is just outside the Somerset border in wiltshire (Longleat, Warminster, Wiltshire, BA12 7NW)

Davidstow near Camelford - already has a history of top level racing, not too far from A30.

Not much goes on there now, just imagine a racing facility with perhaps some wind & solar power to set the balance (well to shut up the greenies & help with the planning).

That's right, quite a bit of land there too, the runways can still be seen but are mostly in a bad way.
