Motorhome and race car overnight in Folkestone
Discussion
Good to hear that man, I take it we will see you again on foreign lands ? I had a major engine issue at Thruxton end last year and have just taken delivery of a new full fat one, so looking forward to some action this year with you I hope. Just to cheer you up, a very rare picture, if you get what I mean........... you in front and all

Hi Richard,
I have for the last five years used the premier inn on the A20 which also has a good car park and video coverage. I am using a motorhome this year so won't need a hotel for the night and was really looking for a safe wild camp as a back up before xing early Wednesday morning so you have all day to get to Spa and bag a place in the paddock. As I have the Motorhome we are going to cross on Tuesday night now and stay someplace an hour out from port, then trundle over to Spa on Wednesday. We get there on Wednesday for two reasons first is we treat it as a weeks holiday and the paddock opens late afternoon to get set up un rushed. We are going to the Spa museum at Staverlot as soon as we get there this year probably just after lunch for an hour , loads of people have told us over the last few years to go. Last year there was a trackday for bikes which was cool to watch from the roof top but the year before it was a test day for the Blanchpain 24 hour very exciting to see them GT's going round especially the then new Bentley and secondly I like to get scrutteneered early Thursday morning, so we have all day to get any problem sorted and then we can get a few beers in at the roof top bar before the weekend gets going with the racing. Ask away if you need any pointers as to what we do or the set up CSCC have over there. You are in for the best weekend.

They open the paddock about 4-6pm on the Wednesday I think. Silverstone more likely for me .I'm in a similar position at the moment....................
