there were 2 tracks in the early 80's, there was one on some park which was crap & there was one built on a coal hill with some killer whoops, you started going up hill to the first berm then it was all downhill... ring any bells??????

The race track at Bradford is the one in the park - it's not to bad but could do with a resurface
Weston - your memory is right about the one built on the coal hill. Big start hill with 1st straight going uphill and then the rest all coming back down! I was a member of Bradford Bandits BITD

you went up from the start into the first berm left turn & hit the whoops, they soon demolished these due to the amount of accidents & put in a step up tabletop... the fastest track i ever raced on..

I think it used to be faster BITD before they changed it! You used to come down the first straight like it is now then into a left hand 90 degree low berm (a lot used to go straight on), then a downhill straight to a massive drop off in the trees. Now that used to be fast!!
