Coming to Brands to watch my 1st DD race
 

What's the deal with tickets?

Can I get into pits/ paddock, etc with the normal ticket or do I need another pass for that?

I believe the DUK truck is going to be parked behind the start/ finish hospitality suites & there is parking set aside. Is this true & is it open to all Ducati owners automatically?

Thanks in advance.

I am not certain if you will be allowed into the paddock on the Sunday or if there will be a pits walkabout, but I doubt that you will need another ticket.

The Ducati UK truck will be there parked between the Kentagon and Paddock Hill bend and you are assured of a warm welcome.

Yes the parking will be open to any Ducati owner.

Like Chris says, can't be 100% sure about paddock access, but the norm at Brands is the outer paddock is free access while the inner paddock needs a different ticket.

I'd've thought most of us will be camped in the outer paddock and there'll be plenty of kettles always on the boil!

I've never been to a Bemsee meet that didn't allow free (i.e. unrestricted) access to both the paddock and the pits so I VERY much doubt whether you'll have any problem going anywhere you want at any club meeting. In the unlikely event that you get turned away at the paddock entrance to the pits, go through the tunnel at the end of the hospitality suites on the start/finish line.

I see that you're in the South East. We'll be doing a ridein from DLS in Croydon if you want to join in, I'll put some details up shortly.

like Lizzie said, free access everywhere at a BEMSEE meet, I've never struggled to get anywhere inside the circuit ...

would presume its 99% access all area's as per last superclub meeting at brands.

The only limit on access is as usual the pit wall / pit lane area's where only riders/teams are issued the pass!!!!!

Any idea what the actual race times are? I can't make the whole day as I'm busy in the morning but I'll try and pop in later in the day if I'm going to catch some of the racing :)

Jamie, apparently its not choc-a-block with races .... untimed DD practice about 11 and timed practice around 12.20 apparently, which means the races will be some time after 1 I reckon ...

Practice starts at 10:00.

Qualifying from 11:50.

Racing starts at 12:40.

Races 1-4 before lunch.

Then there is a lunch break at about 13:40 until 14:15.

Races 5-16 will then run through.

DESMO DUE is race number 6 & 13

Sound of Thunder is race 4 & 11.
