I'm going but sadly not in my Wedge. I'm the advance party setting up camp and installing beer cooling facilities. Where are you camping?

For the first time, I'll be there. Plans are a bit sketchy, but I think I'm camping at one of the blue camp sites. Should be interesting doing six months mileage over a long weekend.

Do not know what the itinery is yet apart from being at the circuit for the start of the race and for the following 24 hrs !!!
