As Stu said Mel, the garages are free
We normally get there early enough to get a few next to each other
All we need is a space in one for the refreshments team:noteworthy
2 cars to a garage is plenty

Thanks for the reply.

I just realised that i don't even have a spare wheel, even for getting a flat tyre on the road.
I can grab some second hand tyres from work and if there is fitting at the track available get them changed over.

I'm looking into getting a couple spare wheels at the moment though.

Got 2 cracked alloys i need to get welded up too lol.

Thanks
Sam

Helloooo you 'orrible lot

As KevB posted, myself and the Datsun HOMO will both be on track, I'll be taking the Scoob for my first ever trackday in it (I'll be getting insurance for this one!) and the homo will definately be bringing the Datsun this time!

Lee is coming down in the morning but myself, Kev, Gummer and maybe Nik will be staying at the Breckland Saturday night.

Really looking forward to it for obvious reasons concerning the car so can't wait

Im sure if we ask the organizer nicely they do a late briefing.

I managed this the last time i was at Snetterton, done my briefing at 10am and was on the track by 10.30am

Once i get my pack through i'll call to see if its possible.

Pete, save me a garage please

They did last time IIRC. Another Briefing at about 10.00 for late comers

Last time in the pack it said...

There will then be a driver's briefing between 8.30am and 9am, when the circuit will open.

Should you miss this briefing the next one will be at 10.00am

Plus the catering at Brands was spot on

I may come as a spectator on this occasion but will defo be up for any future trackday events. I just want experience it as a spectator first hand, probably will be gritting my teeth wishing that I was on there.

I looked at the website but can't see any information for spectators, or what we need to do, what we have access too etc.

Can an experience "tracker" let us know what the spectator can expect please.

Ian, Mandeep I live north west London so may join you on the convoy up or just drive up bt later.

Hi Chet,

Trackdays are very easy going for both spectators and drivers. As a spectator you just show up at the track, the pits are usually signposted and depending on the organiser there will be signs from them too. Usually nowt to pay and full access to the pits and mostly to the track as well- although not all the facilities around the track will be open, just around the pits.
The only charges would be for a passenger lap or as a driver- effectively you buy wristbands.
As a spectator just show up and watch everyone else lose about £300 in rubber/brakes/fuel, or alternatively watch Guv get Subaru coloured paint on the armco.
