If some of you guys want to do Brands, could you not do the odd mtg with another club who are racing there?

As for the going home.... I have done that in the past and ended up totally exhausted.

I am going to count all the miles I do this year and the cost, just out of interest. I love helping out at race meets.

Has everyone gone soft since I packed in racing 17 years ago? Getting there was all part of the fun and everyone slept in their vans or campers at a 2-day meeting. Facilities at the circuits weren't exactly lush then either.

Pompey to Snetterton was always a good one as we'd get to the Red Lodge transport cafe around midnight to find it crammed with other bleary-eyed racers and crews having a fortifying fry-up before tackling the final stultifyingly dull miles of the old A11 to the circuit. Anyone know if the cafe's still there?
