Thought I'd leave it a few days before I'd post this as the actual event, result, support races were superb.

If I'd of been one of the above and paid £35 for the weekend I'd of been mightly pissed off!mad

Made to park outside the circuit, if you didn't have the correct car pass, you couldn't even drive around the outside of the circuit on Saturday even though all the toilet blocks were open! The place is huge, I'm led to believe that Sunday was different?confused

I saw with my own eyes 2 cars turn around an leave when told they couldn't drive around and park up around the circuit!

As for the Security Firm!shoot But I'm led to believe the EERC have no control over that aspect?

Anybody else have any bad Silverstone not EERC problems?banghead

My Mum & Dad witnessed a similar incident at the end of Hanger, a real argue which resulted in my Dad stepping in to calm things down.

I was helping out with the DSC but stayed at Whittlebury for the Weekend, thankfully I had the right passes but the attitude of the Security Personnel was sillycensoredcoprantingredcard

M3 you were one of the lucky ones.

I agree with your comment about the EERC but Silverstone is a Shambles at the moment, I'm not surprised Bernie's looking eleswhere!

The only way I can see Silverstone improving is by MSV taking over all management concerns associated with the day to day running of the circuit.

Oulton Park and Brands have improved immensely since MSV have taken over.

I've thought about this a lot recently and apart from Silverstone and Snetterton who could hold the Britcar 24hr?

A lot of circuits would be excluded because of curfews?
