Barry. All is in hand. We are in the area behind the road which runs up to the strip entrance. Nicely placed and a little less busy.

Sunday only for our spot, it is advised to be at the gates before Joe Public, ie get to the gates between 7 and 8 a.m, otherwise you risk getting into the traffic jam.

One of the mods/team members will be on the gate in high viz vest clearly marked 'E30 Zone Marshal' and they will have the show passes for each Zoner.


Any queries on the day, feel free to ring me on 07810 650 395.

I thin the passes are being handed out on the gate by a zone marshal.

Gates open at 7 a.m, best to arrive between 7 and 8 or you will get caught up in the public queue.

Once you have purchased a Pod ticket for the show, a zone show pass will allow you to come onto the zone stand.

Call me on the day if you have any queries, 07810 650 395.

We have the spot marked on the plan above, which has enough room for 100 cars.

You buy a ticket to get into the event. If you turn up before 9.00am, you stand a good chance of being given a show pass from a team member. This allows you to park in the E30 Zone area.

Once all passes have been handed out, you will probably not be allowed to park in that area (or it will be full up), so you would have to park in the general car park area.
