Anyone going to watch?

I'm not a biker, but a friend lives in Castle Donnington and last year was fantastic. I'm even going for the warm-up sessions - always a bit of action there.

Remember your suncream!

90 rashes of bacon
72 breadcakes
Charcole and tin foil

Was going to go, but have missed out on the advanced ticket sales!

Don't fancy forking out £40 for the on-the-day tickets, that's just a bit over priced in my opinion.

I will be there. Flying in and out by Helicopter on Sunday, together with the comforts of Hospitality should make for an enjoyable days racing.

I'll be there with a few m8s travelling down tonight. Just been told that all cars/bikes are to be kept in a seperate area from the campsite, that should keep the security guards busy tonight!

i live 15mins away, so i'll be staying at home to watch it due to 40 quid being a touch too much for me :( might go on sat. though, 10 quid is more like it :D

Blade,

I presume you were on a bike? We spent 5 hours trying to get out of the car park!! There was no one directing traffic, cars making their own lanes ending in gridlock. Officials only did something when the Moto GP trucks could not get into the circuit @ 8pm!!

Kev,

Said farmer should of opened the field and charged £5 per car to get through he would of made a fortune. Airparks airport shuttle could not get out either and I suspect some people missed their holiday flights.

Si.
