First Time to Thruxton

[RosscoPCole]

I'm taking the family to see the BTCC at Thruxton on Sunday. We have grandstand seats as we didn't know what the weather was going to be like. Factor 50 needed for my fair Scottish skin by the looks of things.
Is there anything we should know about traveling there from Dorset. Things to see and do when we are there and generally anything to make the day more enjoyable.
Thanks in advance.

How did you enjoy it? Didn't see this thread but I was there in the Skyline and had a great day. In true Brit fashion I had a hoodie/t-shirt and waterproof but didn't need it as it was a blistering day

We were down by the entrance to the complex which is a great place to be. Saw someone with a PH t-shirt that said "straights are for fast cars, corners are for fast drivers" lol

We all had a great time. The children chose a cap each then we went to the pits and got the appropriate drivers to sign them. This was awesome for them. We also got to stand on the track as they closed the pit lane and we were marshalled out. The grandstand seats were a great idea as we could move around freely between races and not loose our spot. The view was great at Club Chicane. There was a lot of action and quite a few incidents there which added to the day. The big screen also helped as we could follow the races. We also enjoyed watching the skid pan and ate lots of free Shreddies. So a great day out had by all. We will certainly be back.
