Fourcross Track
The track is always being improved year on year, with a new wider exit to the first long straight and step up jump bringing back towards the bridge before dropping down towards the finish.
The ground is hard packed sandy surface with multi lines making loads more opportunity to overtake and a whole lot more fun to race.
