[quote="Andrew G"]Have you ridden the course Jon (P881/25)? What's it like? a3crg have the full details on their website and it looks like it's a 2 laps of an up and down the A3 affair, albeit with what looks like an up and over and back underneath yourself turn on googlemaps.
I haven't ridden the 25, but have ridden the 10 version and also the P885/25 & 50 which all use the same sections of the A3. It's a pretty good (but not mega fast) DC course; it's probably about as fast as the Bentley course. Although there are long slip roads and flyovers at both turns which are probably a bit slower than slinging it round a roundabout, you would be very unlucky to get held up by traffic at either turn. a3crg events are always really well signposted too, both for competitors and warning signs for the public. The only problem is that the course can get heavy spray and very poor visibility if it's wet, so keep your fingers crossed for a dry day.
