I'd like to pop down but I'm not sure if you have to park in the fields or the carpark opposite to the paddocks.

I've popped into testing in the past and have always parked inside the circuit, in the capark on the left before you go through the tunnel.

It would be very helpful if you could all park in the field across the road.. the site is very busy and, although you might think you're parking in an 'out of the way' place, it may hinder progress or be in the way of something which is about to be built..

Thanks in advance for your cooperation.

cheers,
J

What time does the testing start? I'm guessing 9, but don't really want to turn up before the cars have!


Thanks lloyd

Thanks - same to you as well! Don't suppose you caught the Elva doing the same at the chicane as the GT40 a bit later in the day? He didn't quite get away with it on that occasion though unfortunately...

If you are a member you can get access to the pits and get a little closer to the action.

I think you're getting the paddocks confused with the pits. Just for the record, Members are definitely not allowed in the pit-lane!
