Yes, I'm going Sunday. First time for me - been meaning to go for a few years now..

It is brilliant. You will love it.

Last year I could hardly stand up after all the Pimms and Verve I drank!

Used to go every year for about 4 years, but the friend who got me VIP tickets has returned to Germany, and I am too mean to buy my own.

Great event and a wonderful way to see some serious metal.

any tips what time to turn up and best viewing areas?

At 9:30 ish and go everywhere. Get to the top of the hill too. The start line is pretty good but NOTHING beats the paddock/pits area.

If you can get in a Helicopter too.

Yes. Dont go. Go to the Goodwood revival instead.

Much less advertised but attended by many many stars and their cars. Get into the pits and meet them all!

I went to a couple of these years ago, I'd never heard of it and a friend got me tickets. At the time it was like like a local club meeting and very pleasant, but it's one of those events that's become a victim of it's own success and it's all grown a little bit to large and commercial.

It's a good day out though.
