I see there is testing for the Revival next Wednesday, Thursday and following Tuesday. I can go next week depending on the weather being reasonable. I know it is a case of turning up and seeing what turns up but does anyone know what may be there?

Thanks
Steve

I popped down this morning, there were some (replica ??) C/D/E types and cobras running (some engineering firm.. Dutch I think, testing their cars for the revival) - Mr. Van Der Garde was there... in his Caterham F1 overalls.. still...

It was VERY chaotic! lorries and trucks everywhere!

Just rock up and find out!

There was indeed, although the jobs worthy were moving people on from the chicane where we all stand year in year out and even at the members meet with racing on you are allowed there.

However the site is a building site so keep clear of all of that and you can't go wrong.

Always best to leave a piece of paper with your mobile number on it in windscreen in case it needs moving.

We went to the a test day before the Members meeting in March and parked by the control tower before driving through the tunnel but will park sensibly. We have decided to go on Wednesday as forecast looks OK, just wanted to check that the calendar has not changed and Wednesday is still a test day.

Thanks
