I was there, think that day
Very nice lane we have done it both ways no problems, at the time other than Macho's my car was standard, I think thats the same day we did the Gap.
I have heard a few reports about Happy Valley eating tyres, but we had no problems both times.

Yes I've also done it both ways with no problems..
I've done another track - shorter but far harder about 5miles from that happy valley one, lots of deep ruts, rocky sections and mud!

The Happy Vally BOAT - one of my favourite lanes.
We (Drift and I) have done it twice, once in each direction. First time was south-east with the sun in our eyes, second time north-west with the setting sun in our eyes and then dusk.
Both times have not been a problem.
Hmm, the longer days are on their way...
