Tullyroan Oval Thoughts

As title states. What is everyones thoughts on the new Tullyroan oval for drifting?

looks like a good job but that wall the whole way around it isnt very appealing.

it also runs through the middle of the oval which could be used for some type of figure 8 circuit.

Pro Drift round 4 is also being held at it in August which will be interesting to see how the drivers attack it.

Ive been torturing them on their facebook page wanting to know when the first drift practice day is and they say dont worry as there will be some but at the minute nothing is set in stone.

So what you think?

im the same as yourself that wall looks evil no room for error, i fail to see the attraction compared to some of the venues already on the go

It reminds me of RoseGreen but even that had a bit of an inner Track.
It will be intresting to see, but its not very appealing, I wouldnt wana bring my car :O

Yea only 15 mins away from me too. Probably wouldnt be the best circuit for a beginner. Damn you fucking wall.

I'd still like to give it a go.

you can see here it has the inner/centre run through. the right part of the nearest corner is squarish but the left part is rounded off. Defo looks usable I think.

I think it would be perfect for a beginner, imagine you spent your whole time learning to run the wall!!

Heres someone on it 23rd May, the first practice day. Seems to be the only person who has drifted here so far. Can anyone identify this car/driver? maybe we can get some feedback from him/her.

Looks fucking savage here I think.

Its the same kinda layout as Birmingham wheels and that is used for jdm Allstars and that.

Would be a savage spectator atmosphere at it I'd say aswell
