Aye, me and my spanners will be sleeping in the van for all the rounds.

Are you now gracing us with your presence at all of the DD rounds this year?

Don't mean to sound elitist but I can afford for someone else to cook my breakfast for me and I have budgetted accordingly.

It looks like at least 2 others are of the same view, one of which is Dickie. Come forward now, don't be shy!

I don't think there's anything worse than needing to be wide awake and focused for a race meeting, than having to "rough it" in the back of a van or a tent. I know most of you probably have this down to a fine art, but I'd rather fork out the extra 30-40 quid for a B&B and get a good night's sleep in the warm and dry :D

That's pretty much why I'm camping. I'm under no illusions that it'll be any cheaper (once I've bought a tent, 2 sleeping bags, 2 sleeping mats, etc, etc, etc.....) but not being at the circuit wouldn't seem right. If I had a bit more wedge then I'd hire a motorhome and have some trackside luxury, but a decent size tent should do the job nicely.

Showering?

Ali,

For the cost of 2 sleeping mats you can get a cheap airbed and small genny thing that runs off the car cigarette lighter to pump it up, far far comfier ...
