yes been there twice, in a 1.8 Xr3i!

VEry small circuit which is fun but it wears your tyres out very quick. Not the most challenging and only the main straight to overtake on.

Ive been there 3 times now, mainly due to it being less than 20 miles from my house, it's not a bad track but it is small, It's smack on a mile.
Not the hardest track but it's defo a good learning curve, and it's very hard on the front left tire.
Here a video of my car for you to have a look at.

Fiesta sounds awesome mate

Is it worth taking a spare set of tyres, as its open pit and hopefully il be doing alot of laps if they Focus can stand up to it lol.

if you push it, you WILL kill the passenger front tyre, so i suggest you swap the wheels around through the day

small circuit, good to learn track manors though
