Did anyone go to Santa pod on this day, i did with my mates it was mainly high powered dragsters and rocket cars, overall it was a really good day
Untill we went to leave at 6.15 it was the worst traffic jam i had ever seen, the people at santa pod didn't give a stuff they left everyone to it, which as you can imagine was a complete mess with thousands of cars trying to get out in 3 hours we had moved 20 ft in the end me and me mate went to see what was happening
Expecting to see loads of stewards directing the traffic there was no one, so me and my mate start directing the tracffic, got loads of people thanking us
By the time my mates van got out we had been there for 5 and half hours, i'm so cheesed of, they were so helpfull getting us in but as soon as they had our cash that was it, didn't careless
did anyone else go

My dad went, arrived there at 12.... left at 4pm and took 20 mins to get home 
But Traffic DOES suck, sometimes you have to sacrifice seeing the later shows in order to get out before everyone else.
The villages around Santa Pod are busy too, like that ShitHole called Wollaston

I agree Pete, Wollaston IS a dive.
Jay, on a big event like that, it takes a good hour at least, can take much longer if you time it wrong.
