As soon as I get the info, I'll post it up. I'm sure you will be able to get on at whatever time you manage to pitch up. The parade laps are unlikely to be before 12 so you should have enough time.

This is something I was going to suggest. There is a decent pub about 5 mins drive from the circuit called the Fox and Barrel that does nice food and has a decent car park. If people have the time it would round the day of quite nicely.

This announcement is on the website

On Monday at 11:15, a convoy of exotic Italian supercars will arrive in the venue en-masse, and park opposite Chequers restaurant. Fans will be able to take a closer look at beautiful machines from Ferrari, Lamborghini, and Maserati!


The provisional entry list is up

Make sure you finished the pimms by the time the historic touring cars are on, :jptongue: that's a race you don't want to miss, britains is a good place to watch it from , you see island bend where a few usually end up on the grass, they've taken the trees out so you can see shell hairpin now ,then you get the fast straight down to britains where there's always some action through the chicane , if they get it wrong they hit the kerb going into hill top, a guy in a MX5 took off there on Saturday then bounced on the grass for 50m, I bet that rattled his fillings ,I didn't get a picture because I had that awwww look on my face as I saw it bouncing

It's a bit of a walk or you can drive up there via the knickerbrook entrance , for those that don't know how knickerbrook got its name blaster bates explains

CONTAINS SWEARING

There's always action at Druids too , especially if somebody gets in the way

Klive, I'm tied up today with a medical and a funeral (not connected) so I'll give Mr Morris a call tomorrow. As soon as I know the plan I'll post it up on this thread.

Miles, I spoke with David Morris yesterday and told him there would be approx 8 Masers etc, and he was delighted. He is going to e-mail me the finalised details but it looks like a 10.30 am meet at Lymm services (the junction between the M6 and M56) and a convoy across en-masse to Oulton which is about 30 mins away. As soon as I get final confirmation I'll post it up.

I enjoyed the whole day last time, and even managed to go round the track. Although not yet sure if I can make it this weekend.

Thanks Mate, though I assume the 8 Masers paled into insignificance when you mentioned the mighty Fiat spluttering along at the back!? :) if I don't hear otherwise, I'll be at Lymm at 10.30am.
