The day was cloudy and windy with some sunny spells. The previous day had been very wet and the track was still slippery for practise and first timed runs.

2nd SEPTEMBER 2007

The day was cloudy and windy. There were a few light showers throughout the morning but barely enough to dampen the circuit. The rain arrived early afternoon, affecting the third runs.

The circuit has been transformed since the last competitive meeting hosted in the old format during 2006. This year's event was on the National Circuit, just under two laps of the 1.2 mile layout. All the tarmac was new, the surface was very smooth and the combination of tight and fast bends with gradients and camber changes made for something of a challenge.

3rd SEPTEMBER 2006

This year's Ty Croes sprint was influenced by the weather. The day started with very strong winds and a blanket of thick cloud across the island of Anglesey. The cloud started to break and the sun came through just enough to dry the track in time for the first practice runs.

The first timed runs were taken in the morning but as the Morgans lined up for their second run, the rain came down and the organisers decided to break for lunch. The rain had stopped but the track was still wet for the second run but the sun appeared again and the third runs were dry.

This will be out last visit to the Ty Croes circuit in its present form because they are undertaking a massive re-development of the circuit, turning it into a modern state-of-the-art motor racing venue.
