Croft is subject to stringent noise control and therefore bike trackdays at this North Yorkshire circuit are limited in number. What it lacks in terms of quantity though, it certainly makes up for in quality and it is often described as the best kept secret in British motorsport. Built on a former RAF airfield, Croft has had a chequered history with periods of decline and closure but since a major redevelopment in 1997 has attracted major motorsport events including BSB. The circuit is fast, narrow and flat with long straights and challenging sections that make it physically demanding but immense fun. Once you've mastered the likes of the tricky Clervaux, fast Barcroft, swooping Sunny In and Out and the ultra tight Hairpin you'll be rewarded with a huge sense of satisfaction.
Croft is a well kept venue with a paddock complex and plenty of viewing for spectators.
