There both days with the Ginettas. Come and say hello - still loads of PH stickers on the car after the Burkett last year, as PT uses some magic glue that make them impossible to remove!!

I'm coming down from Yorkshire with a few others on Sunday. Should be there for the F3 race with a bit of luck.

See you there.

Ooh! I'd forgotten about this. Does anyone know what provision is made for camping?

3 races Rich? I hope you're going to finish one this time.

A lot of Midlands PHers are going, following our evening out in Nottingham the night before.

Can we arrange a meeting place for us all?

Suggestions please.

See the first post for parking. After that there are a number of good spots all within 5 minutes walk.

Mrs FFG and me will be there both days - will be in a grey Tuscan not the Griff. Maybe in the company car on Saturday depending on the weather. According to the BBC web site the weekend looks like a cracker but they are always wrong so I'll use the tried and tested look out the window before we leave trick.
