Do we have a clue whereabouts we will be parked, or is the case that a dude with a finger and a yellow jacket will be pointing.

Im only asking cos the last time I went I got there early and parked in the vintage bentley area by mistake and because one of them rudely asked me to leave later in the morning I dug my heels in and left it there all day, its my age.... you know. ( ps I found the rudest club member of the day, do I get a prize ?) ( was that me ? ) ( yes, I can be stubborn with knobs ) ( !!!! )

I was about to post that I have the map from Angus so if you pm or email me your email address I'll forward it to you. I'll also send my contact number. Wouldn't want you roughing it with the Bentleys!

Same applies to others attending.

Thanks, Richard

Ps, its only a minority in the Bentley club, specifically one who treats everyone as staff.

I've only had 2 requests for a map, so if all else fails our stand number is 21. It should be easy to spot as we're in the infield (anag infidel :twisted: ) and on the corner opposite the tunnel under the Wheatcroft straight which leads to the pits, restaurants and stands.

Remember we need our cars to be in the infield by 10.00 am

See you at the weekend, Richard

Sunday's parade day for me - couldn't get a pass for Saturday. Looking at the promotional posts, it looks like they're planning a convoy of 40 Mustangs for Saturday.

Once you're through the gates you can go wherever you want so you can come straight down to 21.

I hope the food stalls are good for albatross, stormy petrel on a stick and wolf nipple chips too.
