Thruxton parking

[super cupra R]

HI, i hope i am not being to forward here but will there be any SEAT parking for the BTCC at Thruxton on the sunday. I have been on the website and tickets are £20 in advance or £24 on the day. If SEAT can secure some parking then put my name down please.

Give them chance to get back from Rockingham first hey!

If there is any reserved parking available, then you'll still have to buy a ticket to get in. You just get to park somewhere more interesting with a bunch of other SEATs.

i can vouch for the camping facilities at thruxton. good night in the circuit bar too,they normally put on a live band Saturday night,and open till the wee hours.
no showers that i could find mind you.
don't fancy SEAT's chance there though,the BMW's are going to be bloody quick here.

I know i was quick off the mark but it is in two weeks and i usually forget about the Seat parking or find the list after its to late.

Yes i know tickets have to be tickets be bought, hence why i posted the ticket prices.

Depends if there is a change of policy at the circuit. They were not forthcoming last year. As hard as SEAT try for us, the final decision comes down to the circuit.

If they say no, then its no. But don't let that stop you going, its a great day out regardless at any BTCC meet.

Neither myself or m0rk will be at Thruxton in May, but if SEAT manage to secure some parking, we'll get them posted out as before.

Stay tuned!

Z, MOrk and I have had a few PM's over this, so if help is needed, let me know.... Just hope that the circuit helps this year....

Sadly they've been unable to secure us anything this year.

I think it stems from 2006, when there were some 'outside' forces which caused some problems - but I won't dwell on that!

I'm sure it'll be a great race weekend either way

I've got my request in from my contact at SEAT UK to send me sms updates while I'm in the states!

It's a shame, but we expected it really.

Blast B****p booo oh and any other comment that ~I shouldnt post here....

Sorry - as mOrk said 'outside' forces... Them Aliens are at it again... Geee, ah well ...

Right, try the rear entrance to Thruxton, be an early bird etc etc ... You just neva know you may be able to get a decent space in one of the closer car parks...

 

[nibbles]

nothing stopping us meeting not to far away and heading in together

 

[Stu B]

Agreed on this point as well .....
Any proposals????, A303 Last turning for Andover prior to Thruxton (DLO) turning there is a Shell petrol station, set back up a local road ?????

 

[Timthebrief]

I was suggesting the BP/Little Chef near the Longparish/Barton Stacey turn on the westbound A303 , just West of where the A34 crosses, (where some of us met last year). We could pick up the Womble on the way past to save you heading East!

I'll try and post up a map link later on. ....

If we met there at say 8.30ish we can head round the back way ie via the Salisbury junction off the
A303 and try to blag parking as a group, in Car Park A which is closer to the action than the main public car park.

Anyone whose up for this post on here.

Respond on here if your'e up for that
