I will be coming down tomorrow from sunny Yorkshire, staying near the track in a B & B. What time are we allowed to get in or what time are most of you arriving at the circuit on Sunday morning?.

Adam and I will be there on Saturday, gates open 07.30 hours on Sunday but I would be there early as I think there will be massive queues. Hope this helps, look forward to seeing you and have a safe journey :thumbright:

I've visited Brands dozens of times over the years - predominately for bike events. Since MSV took over the facilities and organisation are much improved. I remember the nightmare of getting 130,000 in and out to watch World Superbikes back in the 90s. Sounds like they are expecting around 20something thousand on Sunday, I'd hope they get it right.

Thanks Chaps for the info, will try to be at Brands for 7.30 if not earlier. Doesn't sound right to sit in bed when I've drove all the way down. See you Sunday.

I am staying just 45mins drive from the place and can't make it.

I managed to run over my mother-in-law last night as she had left her car running in reverse with the hand brake on instead of in Park and when I jumped in it shot backwards.

Broke her hip. She is 75. They are going to giver her a full hip replacement today.

It sounds like a joke but it has been a Bananarama! nightmare. :roll:
