Thought there must have been at least a few scoobynet members in there

Dave, did you find your own car park?

Stephen, too right it was a long drive. We got there about 4.30am i think, 2 hours sleep in the car then up to watch the action. We got forced into car park C though, which i wasn't happy about because i know from previous years that car park D gives access to much better viewing areas. It's easy to escape the spectator pens too . So for the second run we drove up to car park D .... well worth the time and effort.

Chris,

took my pic on the way out of the car park, near the entrance.
Never thought about moving up to car park D for the 2nd run

There was a nice 555 WRX parked up in C for the morning.
Had a lie-in and didn't leave Bristol until 5am!

Thumbs up I was there.

Car Park C. MY02 WRX in WR Blue with Scoobynet sticker and missing front splitter. Fell off in one of the fords between Beulah and Tregaron I thought the viewing was OK. A million midges can't all be wrong Thought the parking was fair enough. I got there at 7:10 and had plenty of time to get on stage.

I agree the viewing was fairly good from car park C, but it depends what kind of action you like to see. If it's through the twisties at slowish speed then that was the place. However, if you prefer to get your own viewing spot where the drivers are coming down the stage flat out then breaking hard into a slight left then 90 right, car park D access to the stage is the one

Was it just me, or did there seem to be a distinct lack of spectators this year?.. i cant remember it been that quiet and hassle free to get on the stage for a long time. Not complaining though, made life much easier and the day was much more enjoyable
