With last weeks weather and events at Santa pod there is a very high chance of the camping area being dominated by mud and water. So with this in mind pleasure ensure you pack accordingly.
Again with the weather the whole layout of the stands is being changed, I believe nothing will be final until the very last moment.
I'm speaking to the organiser every other day so will try my best to update you on the situation as a whole.

There has been talk of there being somewhere to park and you walk to the camping area to avoid peoples cars destorying the campsite. But this is only talk, nothing has been confirmed

A generic car park will be interesting. How many alarms will have the same noise? 1 goes off, 100 people run to their car
Hotel. A6/A421 interchange. Convoy with SC. Job done.

Ok.
Pretty much the whole show is going to be on the pit side of the Santa Pod Raceway, for those of you who know the ground, where the Family Camping area was last year (where everyone ended up) is now going to be the grass show area. The tarmac area around the pits/toilets/cafe is going to have stands all over it too.
Camping is going to be at the original site, when you drive in and approach the fun fair you will be on the left.

No, we are based at the end of the strip, the oppisite end to where you actually get into Santa Pod. Dont worry yourself, just do what the marshalls say to you on Sunday
