| Tim - only applies to trackdays - there is always camping the night before a race meeting - if there wasn't, it would be a shambles the morning of the race. Depending on the circuit and the type of meeting, you have to get there early to grab a decent space otherwise you'll be 3 miles from the action. First there spreads out the contents of the van to keep space for the others, especially for plugging into electric. Same applies to the night before the circuit organised practice days prior to race day. Even if you're out the back of your car with a trailer, there's still plenty to do and people like to get there early to get settled and prepared. Some of the teams have mega trucks and awnings with several bikes to set up - its like a mini WSB paddock, a small town that goes from meeting to meeting - great community - one of the best parts of racing.
