NZrFL 57: Cortina Cup - Round 4 - Croft
Posted: Mon Jun 29, 2020 6:45 pm
Round 4 of the Cortina Cup takes us to Croft Motorsport Park
Yet another UK circuit with its heritage being formed around an Airway - it's like the poms have been in a couple of wars or something - it was home to many accidents during WWII due to pilots missing the runway.
Croft also has Western Spring syndrome, where people move next door to a racing circuit, then complain that the racing circuit makes noise. In 2009 a court limited Croft to only 40 noisy days per year, which it deemed acceptable as it impact the circuits economic survival...still pure bullsh*t though.
BTCC and Beetle Carrera Cup are held there, although the Superbikes left in 2011.
