The Travelodge at Towcester (about 15 munutes from Silverstone) I stayed at last year has a garage with a jetwash right next to it.

Very handy indeed and a nice bit of straight road in front for a bit of 'spirited showing off' 馃槣

There's also a Little Chef and McD's there so very convenient indeed.

Last year there was a good group of lads from other clubs there and the rooms & staff are excellent.

Do you have to arrive at a certain time to be on the stand?

I think I got there at about 0730 and the queues were already building.

Iirc it's 0830 at the latest with show starting at 0900 although I think they do allow car entry with a stand pass all day.

WOOOOOOO聽:yahoo::yahoo:聽I would be well up for this! Would give me some excuse too to add some mods to the car before it! (Nobody wants to look at a standard ecoboost do they no matter how clean!)聽

But would love a stand pass too. If there is camping the night before, then what about a few of us camp night before and have a few bevvies etc? (Other meets wher eI have been you can camp right behind your pitch! - some jap meets). But no matter where you camp, if theres a few of you, few drinks, BBQ etc it can be a laugh. (Also saves waking up at 5 the day before....).

The drives are long but makes it a lot easier/nicer if you can drive down with a few of you! Makes it less stressful/let each other into queues etc

If I can make it this year then I'll be coming up the day before, staying at travelodge Towcester again and unlike last year hopefully stay another night and drive home the next day.

It's a long day to be on site at 0730 and stay to the end and then drive home 5 hours.

All this depends on my shifts and/or whether wifey lets me out to play.

Camping is at Whittlebury farm you can usually only book via the ford fair website nearer the time. I'll be there as will son and his mate we always go for a curry in towcester and back for a lot of beers around the camp fire. There's also a back way into the circuit so you avoid all the queues as well.

You could try and find a cheaper deal on the holiday at another time, might be possible because early August is when everyone goes on holiday.

It's the only time she can get off work :(

Stoney's idea is a good one...
