Aye.. Managed to get a garage tour of the Honda Racing Team.. Should be good fun, although no doubt it will be pishing with rain!

Can you take your car round the far side of the track, or do you have to park in the carpark at the entrance?

I usually end up having to park on the grass hill at the far side of the track, way to busy to just use the main carpark

You usually have to park on the hill when you get there. Once the early rush is over we then walk back up for the car and take it down to the chicaine. Gets you out quicker too as they use the side gate as an exit.

Last year I went, and was able to park around the outside of the track, along the back straight. Ended up walking mostly and left the car where it was.

Yes, heading up Sunday. Bought tickets online last night after checking the weather - white clouds & sunshine say the BBC for Dunfermline.

Heading down on Sunday too. Not been for a good few years, but with the Touring Cars being more exciting than the F1, i wasn't missing out! Last few times I went, you couldn't get parked near the circuit, was always parked in a field and either got a bus or walked to the circuit. Am I missing a trick here? What time is best to get there?

I think half 7 will ensure a place closer to circuit. :|
