no, by far the best bit is from Mount Pleasant (tescos hatfield) towards hertford, quiet, quite straight and some really great dips and crests. Had a few good races when had my corsa sport 1.6, one memorable tussle with a Lotus Elan. I did suprisingly well

The m6 toll road is private you know. But it'll cost you a couple of quid to get busy down there.

Short of that the M18 near Doncaster to Scunny way and then the M180 to Grimsby, all the bike mags used to recc that piece of road. Quiet and not many coppers. I may have done 160 mph down there on a Bike once.
