Harewood Speed Hillclimb - the home of motorsport and motor racing in Yorkshire and the North of England
BARC Harewood Motor Racing hill climb - the UK's longest hill climb
Harewood is the longest hillclimb course in the UK
- it is unusual in having a downhill stretch which is between Clarks and
the Esses on the map below.
The Course measures 1583 yards, equivalent to 1448.25 metres
The drivers views of the track are:
The start
The first corner - the right hander of Clarks
After going downhill they reach The Esses, a right then a left
which is followed by a right-hand hairpin, Chippy's
Over the crest into the left of Country
with the right hander at Willow coming up next
then up the straight to the tricky left kink and right bend of Orchard
This is follwed by the quick dash between the farm buildings
and the long left-handed Farmhouse Bend
Then up Quarry straight where the maximum speed is reached,
and the final corner, the double right of Quarry
And finally across the finish line
