Had to be one of the best motorsport events i've been to just because of the cars that were there and was pretty impressed with the Hampton downs set up. Was worried what i'd get for my $40 general admission ticket but was able to walk right onto pit row and the areas for that ticket aren't bad at all

Normally go to these events and say the best cars are in the car park but this wasn't the case at all which made the ticket that much more worth while

Came off the motorway and followed the signs for the public parking and realised thats bull shit, im lazy and shouldnt have to walk that far.

How convenient! that marshall and official car park is unattended so managed to get in. Told my mate with the capri to rock in to but someone was at the gate and told him to Vah-moose

He introduced himself and told him that he's from kriner race engines and he's come for the weekend to do the great Kenny Smiths fuel returns and was told to park in here

the guy let him through and gave him a sticker to put on the dash

Brilliant

Gave him a run for his money in the first race. (the one that was stopped because of the triumph crashing)
