depending where we leave from if it`s home. I`ll probably go cross country to oxford and down the A420 to avoid the dreaded roadworks west side of the car park aka as the M25. 
So you won`t need to keep your elbows in on the M4

Could be quite noisy there as the RB5 OC is staying there this year as we were fed up with the service we got from the other hotel...........Plus the pub is a beefeater and is far better. We are there Friday and Saturday Nite.

Cheers Brian
Will call you when we leave Reading Services, If you make a note of how long it takes from there to J16, you can pick us up as we come past.
We are unlikely to come that way but give us a ring on my phone when leaving and Hils can ring Trace for an update when we think you are near or ring us when you get to J15
Looking forward to this now.
Dave hope the back is better soon

Guys
For those on the SIDC Stand it will make sense to approach Castle Combe from the reverse direction so you don't have to pass gates 1,2 & 3 YOU WILL AVOID THE BIGGER QUES. Please see your stand pass for directions
ALSO PLEASE NOTE WHEN YOU ENTER GATE 4 OUR STAND IS STRAIGHT AHEAD NOT TO THE RIGHT AS IN PREVIOUS YEARS. THERE ARE SEVERAL OTHER SUBARU CLUBS WHICH WILL BE TURNING RIGHT MAKE SURE YOU GO STRAIGHT ON !!!!!!
Please also ensure your writbands are ON and your pass is clearly displayed BEFORE you get to the gate the marshals are instructed to make sure they are on before you enter the circuit and will make you put them on holding everybody up
Please look out for either me or Dave T to be parked up as the paddock is going to be VERY BUSY

Not long now......... No, really, not long now. Got to get up in less than 8 hours.
Have worked out the Back door route, and it looks alot shorter than the normal way.
See you in the Morning Lorraine.

What a fantastic day and great company.
The cars were awesome proper rally cars from Mk2 escorts to the flame spitting Quattro S1`s even triumph dollies.
Can`t wait to see your pictures Brian. Good to see you are home safe.
Get some sleep before sorting your pics though.
