The
first phase of construction of the rallycross circuit for the 2007 London
Masters competition, to be held at ExCel on Saturday 8th and Sunday 9th December
is now complete. Built in three phases, the first phase involved creating a
hardcore base which will withstand any amount of punishment from the top
Rallycross cars.
The
surface has been screened, re-graded, leveled and rolled to the highest
specification. The loose sections of the circuit, that needed to be constructed
three months prior to the event to give time for the areas to settle, are now in
place to ensure that the surface is perfect for high performance
motorsport.
The
circuit is a minimum of 14.5 metres wide with an approximate length of 650
metres. The lap time for a Division 1 car is expected to be between 30 and 35
seconds with an average speed of approximately 80mph. The circuit has been
constructed with fast flowing corners, featuring two spectacular
yumps.
The
work was carried out by the PSM Motorsport Ltd circuit construction team &
Starting Grid Ltd in association with Shannon Holdings. Philip Bunn from
Starting Grid said: “It was amazing to see the bulldozer go in and there were a
few nail biting moments but the foundation of the circuit is now in place and
looks fantastic. We would like to thank Ollie O’Donovan and Shannon Holdings for
their involvement with the event and the supplying of the equipment for the
construction.”
