Cadwell Park

Cadwell Park is English motor racing's hidden gem, a roller-coaster ride of a circuit tucked away in the Lincolnshire countryside. Too narrow for anything other than club-level car events, it is bike racing which is king at Cadwell and the annual visit of the British Superbikes is one of the...

A message to all Drivers

If you run off track, you must check to see that its clear before you re enter the track. Always try to re-enter the track parallel to the racing line. Stay off the racing line until you are up to race speed and do not block any fast approaching car.

When joining the track from the pits, remain inside the white line and stay off the racing line until you are up to speed.

During qualification, do not race on your out lap, let other drivers by.


Golden Rule

1. If you hit somebody, sending them off the track and carry on like nothing happened, you take the risk of being banned for 30 days.
2. Instead, you should always wait for the affected drivers, and that way you can be 100% sure you will not get a ban.

Track limits

1. You will get 2 warnings before a 5 second penalty for exceeding track limits to your advantage. Any warnings/penalties are displayed in the chat window at the end of each lap

Note: Please use your full real name in Discord and in game. Not doing so may result in you being kicked from the server if an admin cannot identify who you are.

Your right there Rob, Cadwell is normally a motorcycle circuit and even then it's a challenge with the bikes getting airborne over the 'Mountain'.

Getting the Ginetta around here will be 'interesting' !

I think the image is a generic one Brian uses (looks like Paddock Hill at Brands to me).

Oh maybe its just me. I have the track map of Barcelona with all the corner names on it.

I spent a week racing MX-5 cup at Cadwell on LFM. It was consistently a **** show .

Ahh, you are right about the track map Rob, it’s Barcelona, I thought you meant the photo.

That would explain the "width" of the track, just enough space to "rub two Ginettas together"

And former two wheeled racers will feel right at home, Brian even dug out the Moto GP chicane for you.

Yeah, noticed that little surprise addition, just to make it more 'interesting' than it already is!
I'm betting there will be several of us on two wheels once this kicks off !

Care for a bet who will "win" the most drive throughs?

Chicane is gone. It's safe enough as is

I got mixed up with the layout. Racing info about has the motogp layout as the version without the chicane. Not sure which is correct!?

I have been there on separate occasions for bike racing when they have used both layouts Brian. But generally it's the chicane for bikes and straight through for car racing.

Ah ok, thanks Paul. I've switched the practice server to the no chicane version.

I'm sad we don't drive such a cool track in the BTCC championship. No blame on Brian though. He's not guilty that they drove other not so cool tracks in the past.

It was on the list. It's the 18 grid slots that's the main issue there. It could maybe be done, but would need to do a roll call in advance of who can and can't race.

PITSTOP....are you required to anything, or just a stop and go?
