The garage list for Brands ?

Just got me entries and reading through the garage list it looks very empty.
Only myself and JP in ours and most of them with just one person in.
Does that mean there aren't going to be many other racers there or don't they like Brands Garages ? and does anyone know if we have to run down the back of the garages again like Donny or can we just go straight out into the pit lane?

I'd assume it means that riders have either booked all three spots in just one name (rich boys??) and can then use all of the space or allocate the space to 2 other riders they choose?

I'd imagine we'd go along the back of the garages (in the reverse direction to the track direction), then come onto the track just behind the starting grid (use the normal track exit point as an entry point). I can't see that we'd do a lap from pit lane, then line up, then do another lap before we take the grid for the start? Too much time I reckon.

Someone will be along soon who knows more about these things.

Yes Tim, you're dead right.
We will be called to the collecting area near the pit lane entrance, so will have to go out the back of the garage to get there.

i'm booked in the sound of thunder, got my final instructions with my name written by hand on the garage list, so have some other racers, so i think they just printed the list too soon and wrote the names on later,

new era will only let you book one space, good idea, stops the rich boys getting the whole garage, they are pretty big at brands.

a lot of racers like to be in the main paddock rather than the garages, as its easier for race office, showers, bar, scrutineering etc, and they cant get the big race trucks through the tunnels!

note :
the exit tunnel is MUCH lower than the entrance, theres always one!!
