It is much better to get in early, relax, clean your car, and then wait for Joe Public to arrive.

Unless of course you use the back door route in

I take it car cleaning facilities are available. Hosepipe or similar?

There was water there last time from memory. It was provided by a tap on the outside of the gents bogs from memory.

I'm taking a bucket for a quick rinse. Hope to do some proper cleaning tomorrow.

I showed my Escort GTi at Ford Fair in 2004 & 2005, there was a photographer set up who takes a picture of everyones car on the way in. Then you can buy prints, T-shirts, mouse mats, clocks, etc. when he shows them in his tent later in the day.

If you go too early, as I did in 2005 he wasn't there yet, so I missed out.

AlexMechanic · 29-08-2007, 12:26

He's there by 7.30.

I've never missed being photo'd yet.

He must have been late then, I went in at 7:45am and he wasn't there! The pictures started from about 7:55

I so far have a bbq, coals etc.

- 16 burgers.
- 20 sausages
- A reasonable pack of bacon (36 slices)

Just need to get bread cakes, maybe some cheese and some ketchup I guess.

decided to make a little nurburgring type sticker of silverstone.

if anyone else on the stand wants one, let me know a colour and i'll make them up.

postmanpat · 30-08-2007, 18:34

Hmmm, a Silverstone sticker on a 1.1 Kia Picanto which is never likely to see a track, do you really want one?

I would imagine so, although I can't be 100% - is there a list on the website of traders who'll be turning up perhaps??

Which Collinite were you interested in anyway?

Well a mate at work has a Fiat Seiciento with a Nurburgring sticker on it (although to be fair he goes all the time on his motorbike).
