Iain has sent me some pics of the Kaunas circuit (called Nemunasring, after the river running through it). Here they are, together with Iain's words
Start finish line. Looking towards turn 1. Very fast and scary left hander. Turn 1 Turn 2. Another very fast left hander. Road then falls away. Turn 3. Stay in 4th. Another left hander. Turn 3 Exit turn 3. Need to be very brave now as there is a complex of right left right very fast 4 th gear turns. Great fun. You have now got through a series of fast sweeping corners. Now it gets technical as you have a tricky left hander and you also approach a blind hill. The hill. It’s 3rd gear and blind. Over the hill and approach 3rd gear right hander. Through last right hander and now approaching another tricky blind right hand corner going over another hill again very fast 4th gear. Some of the surface. Not good at all. The track is very bumpy and we are all bottoming out. You literally have to hang on to the steering wheel. Over the last hill flat out and up to 5th. Be brave, hang on and head past start finish line. |

Hot and no rain here too Iain. Probably a great weekend for the British Kart GP at Donington. Apparently will change tomorrow to be a bit cooler, cloudy and some showers. |
