1) watch out for the scamera van on the road from the M40 down into Stratford
2) from Stratford to the venue there is a 100 metre section of road works, IMMEDIATELY after a bend, with temporary traffic lights on it controlling the flow.
It is well signposted for the works, but if you are travelling too fast, you may be caught inside somebody's boot, without an invite.........
3) please make sure that your car pass sticker is on your windscreen before you get to the venue- that way it will speed up your entry.
4) please use the litter bins that will be distributed around the site (last year's effort was great- it only took us 20 minutes to clear up rubbish- let's do the same again please)
5) DO NOT go anywhere near the racetrack at the top end, behind the campsite- no need to tell you lot that this is where the race cars travel at max speed, and the drivers will not be expecting any foolishness on the track.
6) same goes for the runway, unless you have a microlite flight booked of course.
7) have fun, see you all soon.

leaving the site tonight, fixed speed camera a few miles outside Stratford towards the M40 is working.

anyone travelling on the M42 just south of the NEC, there are also a rake of live camera's (in both directions) amongst the 50mph road works, they have been there for some time.

Wilts also have a scamera bike - apparantly one of the first in the country. It has a ruddy great scamera logo on the screen.

I clocked one in the back of an unmarked maroon MPV parked on the A46 last weekend. Marked Bike was buzzing round pulling the cars in.
