Heard all the mad drifting going on and by the time me and my mrs got to the mainstand and sat down it was bloody over!! Never had to queue up for the mainstand all the years i have gone. Couldnt find a decent spot along track either for some decent pics, wire mesh was all over the place. When I eventually stuck my lens inbetween the mesh for a decent shot of track a steward told me off .......




Great pics by the way.

Haha, you really were too!
From what I saw you looked like you got right into it nicely after a few runs.
It's an awesome bit of track, and well worth the long journey!

Although where were you for the 5pm session?!
