I've always liked Buxton. Haven't gotten there yet this year, but I know last year they were really getting a handle on keeping things moving. Selfishly, I liked the way that (last year anyway) they ran the Sport Stock and LM features first, that way if the mods and minis went late, you could leave feeling you'd gotten your money's worth. I tend to think SS and LM are their best show....assuming a regular nights racing. (Nothing against the minis or mods...just that the mods seem to take forever to finish a feature whenever I see them.)
My only three beefs with Buxton
-Yeah, the washrooms are kinda non-lady friendly.
-their announcing (in past years) has been pretty hit and miss.
-their program needs work with regards to letting he fans know who the drivers are and where they come from. That comes back the the announcing, and the fact that the best written thing I've ever seen is a slip telling you who the top 10 in points is...no hometowns or anything. Most of the info that I actually DO pick up has usually come from the nearest regular that I'm sitting near.
Othewise, Buxtons a great show!
It also has the honor of being the place where I saw the freakiest crash I ever personally witnessed. The LM guy on the outside pole in a heat race comes roaring to the start line, makes contact with the guy beside him...rides the front fence, goes off the end of the turn 1 pit exit, and goes barrel rolling right thru the middle of the pit area. They needed a fire truck and a can opener to get the guy out after about an hour's work. And this was the first race of the evening!
Anyway, cant speak for the sprint shows, but if you can get there for a big LM race, don't miss it.
