The FOS is next weekend 11-13th July. Is anyone from here planning a visit. I have tickets for the Sunday. I have been a couple of times before but the last time must have been about 5 years ago. I have never been on the Sunday though so I guess it must be the busiest day when all the big names turn up.
I am really looking forward to the ten hour drive down. :(

It is the day with the biggest names - but beware, Lewis is there on that day, which means that the crowds around him will be horrendous.

I've never been, I don't know why, I just never seem to get around to going. :(
Take some pictures for us Steven. :good:

I never take a camera to motor racing events. I used to take one to race meetings but I spent so much time and effort producing terrible pictures that I never knew what was going on in the races. So I stopped taking a camera in the mid 80s.
Never been. I have been a couple of times and it is absolutely awesomely fabulous. I have to drive ten hours to get there. You have no excuse.

I'm going on the Saturday. I'll be taking loads of pictures.

Sorry to revive this, it is an awesome event to go to, although I think theoretical is better. I spent one Sunday there as a spectator and had a brilliant day. The following year I sent the weekend there as a marshall. Only a crowd marshall, as I wasn't qualified as a track marshall, but I was stationed at the track crossing. A couple of highlights of the day was sending Quinten Wilson in the complete wrong direction, this was an accident as it was in the first morning and I never had a site map. The other was meeting Jack Bramham when he strolled over and asked my permission to cross the track, a brilliant brilliant weekend.
