I'm curious to know how you do picture an RC race? Have you been racing yourself?
Mad Ax - do they ever include a straight at that club? It seems a bit of a chore to be constantly cornering - I live quite close to that club but not sure I would want to go there if the layout is always that twisty! At Chippenham we always have a straight, it helps to space out the cars and make traffic easier to deal with.
I miss racing at this place, it's a good club, however reading this thread to catch up on what's going on is great :-)
They do have full length straight sometimes, but the West Wilts club do like their tight & twisty infields !
I raced here (& Chippenham) a lot during 2010 & a little during 2011 & have attached a few pictures I had of some of the layouts they had in Melksham.
PS. Mr. Sosidge I have enjoyed your blog in the past, especially around the time you had some RC10 B4 stuff in there. It coincided with me getting into offroad & contained some good tips :-)

West Wilts is a great fun club. I did my second ever RC race here in late 2009 with a Tamiya TT01 & 27 turn brushless & NIMH batteries.
I kept coming back throughout 2010, gradually getting into LIPO's for my TT01 & various hop up's then I bought an Associated TC5 in May 2010 & went brushless.
I still kept coming back to West Wilts club in early 2011 & miss racing at the place now.
I've tried to attach a few shots of the track layouts here, they usually like a tight & narrow infield !
