If this goes ahead, it will become longer than Harewood!

Not sure if two huge straights will improve the course, but we shall see.

Looks good actually. The current straight, like the article says, isn't particularly straight and actually a very dramatic place to watch the big cars. Can't complain with the cars getting longer runs and it certainly looks more interesting than Harewood. I hope I can get there for a meeting this year, being the anniversary and all.

It's nothing more than a mere vision at the moment, I doubt anything will happen this year. If it did go ahead, a brand new paddock would have to be built.

only top paddock holding area, which isnt such a big deal, shelsleys top paddock holding area was a bit of mown grass for 100 years, so shoudlnt be too big a deal ;-)
Agree its unlikely to happen in near future (and not necessariliy exactly as per Sir Michael Leightons vision), but great if/when imrpovements are made for drivers and spectators alike.
