If you fancy a pit with I may be able to get along...I was going to give Ali 'a hand', be good to catch up with some people.
How many garages are their at Donington ? Just wondering if I need to bring my gazebo and a generator. Andy
Yeah, my booking was via a dealer for the original date and included garage. God knows what we will get now. I'm bringing slicks in the hope I still get garage and power, but bike will be shod with treaded rubber for arrival as its all a tad unpredictable. I asked MSV for info this morning and they said it will go to my dealer, as thats where the booking came from.
Bring them - with the restricted numbers allowed in the garages they fill up fast - better to have the option if you can’t get a garage.
There are loads. But I’m not 100% certain everyone will get a garage slot at 6 per garage, max. I’ll take my generator too just in case
There's 38 garages at Donny, and 3 bikes per garage means 114 bikes inside, out of probably 180 on the day? I was up there last thursday and we got there 9pm the night before to drop the bikes off and get a space with some mates who had come down from Scotland, the garages were full that night! However the other 2 times I've been since everything started again and the garages were half empty, so who knows.
You’re right but it shouldn’t be a problem. We leave our bikes at tracks on euro gigs. But I guess UK has more thieving bastardry going on. Sad but true.
Attending the briefing was a vulnerable time. That’s when the cheeky bastards would pounce apparently. But the brief is all done online now prior to attending the track. A good thing I think and I would imagine it’s here to stay.
One thing that I hope will continue. Makes it more relaxed knowing you're first out and f*cking about running up and down pit lane!
Whats the power point set up at Donny? Just standard 3 pin 13A plugs or a combination of that and the blue and red CEE 16A caravan stuff?
To be fair I wouldn’t normally, only because some lads we know had driven from Scotland so wanted to make sure we were with them. I locked mine and my mates bike together with 3 massive chains to the sink in the garage, all the other bikes were just left there on the side stand so I figured ours would be last to go! Plus they have 25 hour security so probably safer there than my garage! First time I’ve ever done it so no idea if it’s a 1 off.
