    What what I have read on another forum where there is a local guy and biker who posted that Mallory have ignored many request. And have broken many times guidelines that where set in place by the local council and Mallory owners. So seems it's not a simple as locals moving in a bitching about the circuit

    But Wedge sorry to hear the news and hoping something can get sorted to keep the circuit open.

    Talking to a mate who Drifts. It was something back 2009-11 when they had drifting on a week day after 10PM. Off the top of my head that kicked off the current issues.

    I don't want to hear about a circuit going bust and as said hope something get sorted.

    Just saying there may be 2 sides to this. :(

    Sad times but the circuit went too far with moto cross every Sunday morning plus track days etc.

    Did not need to come to this I dont think.

    Totally agree........ I think they obviously pushed the boat out a little too far....... local businesses will suffer too.... but the core complaints made comes from one local family who out of 153 ish complaints I'm led to believe they have lodged 105ish of them..... ? i was talking last yr to a focussed events guy at Mallory....he says this local has some clout and set the stand off in the way he s tried and look like succeeded in closing down the track...... i say call in "BIG FAT GYPSIES" to INVADE MALLORY !!! ;)
