Safe parking a supercar in normal parking areas?
Discussion
just my view but : NO are you mad?. I have seen push chairs with screaming kids bang into peoples cars, scratch them, laugh and walk off , drunken idiots falling about all over the place.
Fields full of mud if it rains, so bad that even tractors are stuck, bumpers pulled off on cars being towed , performance cars covered in dust (if dry) with swear words written into it.
I never take my expensive cars that I cherish anywhere near the place , the crowd has changed over the years to a more corporate day out drunken beer or champagne booze up. Still enormous fun but take one of my supercars..............no way. I am getting a lift in my daughters Corsa.
Still you might be absolutely fine. Good luck.

WARNING!!!! DANGER! DANGER!
Just arrived in car park S and they seem to have forgotten to put the 'ramps' in before large metal plates as you drive in. Therefore a couple of inches of solid metal plate to get over and if you are in anything lower than my MX-5 it could well be an issue.
Be very carefully on the way in!

I will be in something low, so that's a very useful warning.

This is one of the most hysterically inaccurate forum posts I have ever read.Fields full of mud if it rains, so bad that even tractors are stuck, bumpers pulled off on cars being towed , performance cars covered in dust (if dry) with swear words written into it.

I have been driving and parking at the FoS for 12 years, 3-4 days each year and beyond cars getting a little dusty in especially dry years, your 'observations' are very far from my experiences.
