My first time last year - went as an independant, from Kent and back in a day.
More organised this year, up on the Saturday, staying overnight 20 mins away, v.early start sunday & in the Ducati tent.

Also looking forward, as a newbie, to meeting some other DSC members.

See you sunday & fingers crossed for the weather

unfortunately I will not be going again this year.
I will not go to donnington again until they sort out the traffic leaving the venue.
great day great racing spoilt by 4 1/2 hours sat trying to get out.
no direction from police marshals, they all just left them to it. it was HELL

We'll be heading in my car and settling by Starkey's Bridge with a good view of Hollywood/Craner/Old Hairpin.

Plan to hit Donington at 07:30 latest to miss some inbound jams...but on the way home we'll be at the mercy of the new traffic flow system they're using this year...

I'm not going this year,but flew down last year and walked to the airport faster than a lot of the traffic at the end of the racing.
It might be worth parking in one of the airport car parks if you are in a car,they aren't free but if you dont mind that then its only a short walk away....and you dont have the scrum of escaping the circuit.
Hope you enjoy it,get there early if you want to get a good place to sit.
If you get a chance you might be able to pick up some cheap stuff too,not the overpriced mechandising though,I got an aria quantum for £200 for my missus-cheaper than at any of the crappy bike shows I've been to,just keep your eyes open.

The Perrin Clan are camping all weekend and will be in the hospitality area for the race.

Plus one extra little person.
