Yes,.. if you want you can take your car in and out of the show ground ..
However if you are on a club stand it might be worth knowing that once the show closes on the Saturday the circuit gates will be shut and no one allowed back in,.. the circuit is patrolled by security guards. So your car is probably safer in the grounds than by your tent..

I'm confused, I think I asked the wrong question  I would like to park my car on the stand with my mates and camp nearby. This means during the day I can keep an eye on my car and tent and the same for the eve. ;D |

haha maybe I answered the wrong question  The camping is relatively near to the show area, but you won't be able to see if from the show area.. We have security on the camping area and the only people allowed in the camping area will be people with tickets (in fact you should have a wrist band to show you are camping). So its pretty secure anyway, but I think it is only sensible to keep anything valuable with you. Did I get the right question that time? |

What Zippy is asking, is will we be able to camp with our cars on the stand.
From your answers I can see that the answer is no.

doesnt sound like it, as show is in the show area / track? and I'm guessing camping will be on a field nearby or something.
Soooooo
do we turn up friday, camp, get up bright and early and drive into the showground and put car on stand, leave it there til sunday afternoon? So best get everything out of it ya need for camping etc.

Pretty much ,.. I'm going to put together a FAQ to answer some of these questions on the show site. Its probably better to leave your car in the circuit/show area as its on hard standing. So if it does rain (which of course it won't), then at least your car can be moved easily rather than churning up a field |

problem i can instantly foresee with that is:
i rock up friday night and camp, then take my car to the stand you're then stuffed as i'm not leaving my tent fully of valuables - one the possibility of theft and 2 it'll cramp up the tent.
so it obviously all going in the boot of the car.
come saturday night i'll want all my stuff with me at the camp site....

Kind of in the same topic.
I will be getting someone to bring my support waggon (not retro), will there be somewhere near the track for me/them to park it, in the event of something breaking.
I am just thinking I don't want to walk all the way to the car park and back again for a new Diff etc.

You can take support vehicles into the pits area with you when you are doing the sprint.. and when you leave pits area they can be parked back up in the car park  |

Drive your car back over to the camping area on saturday night and sleep on.
