  • "The Circuit is quite bumpy and the last chicane is a poorly conceived make shift affair which proved to be the most common place for accidents."
  • "The best of a bad situation. We do not have many circuits for racing close by but this location is pretty bland and the experiences are terrible."
  • "My husband had a fantastic experience driving three of the cars, however its not very good for spectators because you cannot see the track from the fence."
  • "The long time family owned Circuit are a little unhelpful as they prefer car racing to motorcycles and severely limit the places on track days therefore availability."
  • "Very unprofessional behavior."
