its logical though, you put a 1000 cars in a field with just one, maybe 2 exits then thats what will happen, the M25 is 4 lanes most the way round, still gets jammed everyday, there will never be enough capacity in the south east for all the cars, thats just the way it is and Brands really only exits in 2 places, the A20 and Scratchers Lane !!!

would be more logical if carparks were structured like Silverstone

maybe.....some sort of surfacing ? perhaps access lanes ?

not just open muddy field mayhem, free for all with 1 exit lane
that has & will, never work

rant over

you'll probably find as that green belt land they aren't able to tarmac it over, the impact on the community of Brands growing success is already raising eyebrows and a potential noise restriction after 6pm may be introduced next year which may have a huge impact on track evenings ....

For what it's worth - Silverstone was total chaos 2 weeks ago - they got loads more cars than they expected and kept sending them into car parks that were already full - result was people abandoning cars anywhere they could and blocking the whole place up.. and that's all been paid for with F1 money

Everywhere is chaos when a large crowd all tries to leave at the same time

I had no problems then....and my car was still relatively clean when I left - unlike the mudbath
