Pre-Season Test Days Announced at Knockhill - Malcolm - 28-02-2011 With the 2011 racing season just around the corner, Knockhill has organised a series of motorcycle track days and tests over the next few weeks. The track is evolving at Knockhill for the 2011 season with the installation of 'hot dog' style kerbs around the circuit, the same as is being installed worldwide. Circuit Manager Ian Forrest said: "Following a track inspection, we are installing the 'hot dog' kerbs at the rear of the existing kerbs which will stop corner cutting and make all competitors ride the track rather than short cuts. The big change of line will be at the Chicane in particular, and overall the track will be safer, which is the ultimate aim. We hope that teams will take part in our special two-day test at the start of April, prior to both the Scottish and BSB season starts." All teams and riders wishing to try out the track can do so on a bike test day on Sunday 20th March or at a special two-day test on Friday 1st and Saturday 2nd April. Details are as follows: Sunday 20th March - Bike Test Day 10.00 - 13.00 £60 in advance or £70 on the day 10.00 - 10.25 Up to 599cc 10.30 - 10.55 Over 600cc 11.00 - 11.25 Up to 599cc 11.30 - 11.55 Over 600cc 12.00 - 12.25 Up to 599cc 12.30 - 12.55 Over 600cc Friday 1st April - Pre-Season Bike Testing Day 09:00 - 17:00 in two groups £150 (maximum 60 riders only, maximum 30 bikes in each group) 08.00 Registration 09.00 Group 1 09.30 Group 2 10.00 Group 1 10.30 Group 2 11.00 Group 1 11.30 Group 2 12.00 Group 1 12.30 Group 2 13.00 Lunch 14.00 Group 1 14.30 Group 2 15.00 Group 1 15.30 Group 2 16.00 Group 1 16.30 Group 2 Groups will be split into up to 600cc (to include 125s and Superstock 600) and over 600cc (to include Supersport, Superstock 1000 and Superbike).
