Clive & Myself went to this last year and Lydden really is a spectators circuit. You can see the whole circuit and some very tasty machinery.

Metro 6R4's, Lotii Exige, and numeroud 4wd, turbo 600bhp cars on a mix of tarmac & gravel/mud.

A quickie of past rallycross videos from Lydden - (whose is the carlos sainz I wonder?)

Might be able to do one of these days but it clashes with the Dunlop Saloon Championship at Brands. I need to attend with JEMS to sus out what mods we will be allowed on TrackToyFour :D

It was a cracking day last year.
The highlight being the super final which IIRC was run 4 times due to major accidents.

This is the final attempt with soem very close racing and even more incidents.
