Will arrive eraly on Saturday, leaving again on Sunday afternoon after the GT race.
I don't care - I'm a racing driver and I'm here to win, not to finish third.

I spent many an hour in the poo bar at the Coys Festival, then called the Scafe & Goggles.

I would think that there would be somthing like that but, were i dont know. There is usualy a bar behind Woodcote and plenty of space and one on the inside of Copse.

I will enquire. Soon as known will post.

There will be a small contingent from Team Zarse in attendance, and provided we can make her roadworthy in time, the commer will be too. More than likely arriving Sat. am until Sunday pm.

Definitely up for a Poo Bar style gathering on Saturday - just one bottle won't hurt...
TEAM ZARSE - It's our pleasure!

Sorry to be little thick but I was intending to go Sat and Sunday but now find myself double booked for Saturday.  

Which day are the LMES car racing?

The silverstone web site is not helpful as it states Fri to Sunday as race day, I don't mind missing practice but I would like to see the race.

I'll be there for the LMES race on Saturday 8), working on a pass to stay 'til Sunday, but might not be worth the amount of brownie points it would need  :'(

I'll be there guys, arriving early Saturday to pitch the tent and leaving after the GT race on Sunday.

Who else will be on the campsite then?

Should be there, but only on the Saturday for before the race and during, but not for long after - my lad's 18th birthday that day, and whilst he will enjoy the racing, he won't enjoy being late for heading out to his evening social life.  Sunday, we're racing off-road again.

Going Saturday morning until Sunday after, rest of the gang bottled out.If you see somone wandering about looking like Billy Nomates come over and say hello cos that will be me. Maybe I will see you in the Royal Oak in Silverstone village on Saturday night. I read in the Silverstone year book that they will be using the International circuit instead of the GP circuit. Whats that all about are they expecting a go-cart race or what.

Just booken my weekend ticket and camping pass - not bad at £23!
Silverstone say there will be food and drink facilities on the campsite which is inner circuit. Also they've booked a band for the sat night on the campsite.

Sounds like a plan to me!!!!!!!!

Champagne and warm lager then.
