Missed out on camping tickets again?!!

Have tickets for the weekend but seriously what have you got to do to get weekend camping tickets? Was there at 7am mouse trigger finger at the ready and... sold out.

As a nice day out I actually thought it was pretty good. The cars were more of a token gesture really, no looking round the paddock like FoS and the runs up the hill were a bit of a joke.

Not sure there would be enough to entice me to spend more than a day there, all we did most of the day was just shop which was bloody expensive.
Sounds like you didn't see a large part of it then - including the paddock. The paddock had all the cars that ran up the "hill" and more.

The paddock was beyond the main stage and show ground area if you came in as a day visitor.

For a family event with a slant towards cars CarFest has the balance just about perfect.

The entry, parking and leaving was incredibly painless. No queues whatsoever driving in or leaving. No queues for food, drink or toilets either.

We thought this year was probably the best and struggled to get to see everything in one day and will definitely aim for a camping ticket next year and forget about FoS.

I definitely saw the paddock but it was all fenced off.
Odd as it wasn't when we were there. In fact I was some what amazed that the La Ferrari, Lightweight E-Type and LFA etc. weren't given their rarity.

Completely open and incredible access.

Maybe fenced off whilst the runs in progress?
