    Car transporter,should be a good race with your van as long as you leave it loaded (at least I'll still be able to powerslide)

    Unlucky! Sick bag/new pants at the ready for the first time you hit paddock with decent speed and your stomach goes all light as you go down the dip and it tries to throw you towards the gravel Its also interesting braking into paddock and wondering what would happen if your brakes didnt work at that moment! I think i panic too much when im out on track

    Is there a travel lodge or similar near by? Would it be safe to leave card in car park over night?
