Anyone going?

I'm taking the GT86 with the family and I know a big group of 86's are there. Also a few mates with drift cars are on track

Just wondering how many other Locals are going

Would be good to meet up with other PH'er there

Should be taking my Legnum, but if my GTO is finished I'll be taking that.

I may pop along. I went last year - not so manic as it has been previous years. Still busy, but not the queuing chaos.

I usually go, although its been a few years since I sold my Evo, and returned to Peugeots.

It's quite fun, but can be a bit samey sometimes.

What time did you leave to get in? I always get their early IE around 9am and never had a issue ever getting into combe other than a 5 mins wait to get to the pay stalls

I think it was 2011(?) - all surrounding roads were jammed by about 0800 - lasted till almost midday. Nightmare.

It was as bad as it gets round here with Badminton Horse Trials. In fact, I think they clashed that year which is why it was so bad.
It's been much better the last couple of years. Thankfully.
