It's only 45 mins at the speed limit from mine plus the weather is supposed to stay okay now until next week.

Anyone going? Anyone been before?

You need to get there very early if last years cluster fk is anything to go by. There's a 60 car convoy turning up during the morning so expect carnage. Last year they had to close access to the circuit due to all the cars. You also had lots of kids with go pros being delivered by their mums.

I'll be there but from early on.
I've just been reading your account from the last one! Loads of "Shmee" followers and the like everywhere. I also saw about the convoy that has been arranged.

I'm heading down on my own and had planned to arrive at about 8:30, in a hopeful effort to beat the masses. I may even leave a bit earlier now though!

Will keep an eye out for your 595

Where is general public parking, is it in the field opposite like a breakfast club meeting ?
Not 100% sure. Last breakfast meet I went to was on my bike and we parked in the brown car park I think. I expect it will be signposted once you get on to either Claypit lane or New road

One of the quickest cars on track:

Serious GTI envy. Nice chap as well. He was getting held up by those 458 GTC's

Well they got what they wanted: I see there is a video of a 488 nearly wiping out a car on the main road doing the rounds on Facebook!

Not sure why he lost it but he did a very good job of saving it
Agreed, looked like he shifted to 2nd and gave it a heavy dose of the loud pedal!

Cold tyres + poor road surface + low road temp = squeaky bum time!
