Spot on!!
A couple of years ago at brands, we in Formula Honda were told that if we touched one of the cones put on the grass edge of the kerb on the exit of Graham Hill, we would be black flagged and out.
I was there yesterday and the BTCC casr and Clios particularly were 1/2 a car width over that kerb almost every lap in some cases.
