Had a look at this today. and it seems like the work is finishes. The tracvk has been heavily oversown and there has been a great strike of fine grass.

The traansverse drains are at right anmgles and the lighter green shows them up. The fall on the straight is toward the outer rail and I assume the perimeter drain is around there

Looking good.

Hopefully though, the main drain is on the inner, because if it is around the perimeter [outside] then that is still were the jockeys will still all be heading, as that will be the driest!

Surely they haven't been that stupid Nerula, or have they been?

Surely not. I'm hoping that's an optical illusion created by Nerula's camera. If it is they'll be all going to the outside alright because as P4P says they won't be able to balance up and change legs when they straighten. Pop back with your laser Nerula and please report back that the fall to the outside is an illusion. They couldn't have changed the camber on the turn from outside in to inside out could they? Be like riding on a skate park!

Look at the patchyness on the right foreground..doesn't look any good to me

That's where they are about to put in in the fast lane Hedley, where you see the bare patches and poa.

Really not a good pic from the iPhone. Now I go to photos on the Mac and cant find how to level it.

I would say the track contour is as original and no Heds in a farming context it isnt patchy. Looks a great take to me.

On another note diggers are on the tie up area and profiles set up for building. This will be a great facility!
