Croft, North Yorkshire

 

Circuit Information

ike many tracks on the British Superbike Championship calendar, Croft can trace its lineage back to World War II. The former RAF base started hosting motorsport events in 1962, with the tarmac going down two years later. However it wasn't until the circuit received a timely overhaul in 1997 that its recent success started to gather momentum, with the introduction of Superbike action. In the past decade the North Yorkshire venue has been extended to 2.127 miles with new pits, paddock complex, control tower and spectator areas being constructed.
