Cranberry Medows

welcome to Crannberry Medows on the Borders, the facility has a 1/2 mile low banked oval and a 2 mile road course. It is quite flat but should give close racing. The oval could host SCSA, National Hotrods, stock cars, stuff like that and the road course could host Champcars and F3 and stuff like that, the road course is also Concrete surfaced for that extra challenge. And with long straights and tight corners, it is a challenge to set your car up right.

Not too keen on that long corner.

you never like nice long challenging corners do you?

I do. But that one's not that challenging IMO.

To be honest it's not your best effort.

The entrance/exit (you don't say which direction) at the bottom of the oval looks very strange, and possibly dangerous given the camber of even a low banked oval.

Also the 90 degree/chicane type thing on the right hand side either has no run off or kinks on the entry that negates any chance of overtaking.

well, there would be an apron round the oval so the pit etrance and exit would be on the back straight.

I was actually meaning getting on/off the actual oval onto the road course section.
The pit lane area itself looks ok.
