They were huge last year, best to get there as early as possible.

The general public are sposed be allowed in from 9am, I think, but there were already a fair few cluttering up the entrance when we got there around 8am last year. It didn't help that the 'organisers' didn't seem to have a plan for getting people in quickly, it was a right old shambles :runaway!:

So I wouldn't want to get there any later than 8am.

Looks like I'll be on my own then as I know my 3 mates won't be wanting to leave that early with me :(

Oh well.

I spoke with the organisers this week, from what I can gather the Mopar parking area will be in the same area as last year, ie just behind the main grandstand. If that changes i'll try and put a message up from my mobile. They wanted to park me up with the film cars this year to which I strongly objected, so it looks like i'll be on the Mopar stand .. :thumbright:
