Thruxton BSB this weekend

10-04-2007, 07:53 PM

We're off to Thruxton for the first time this weekend, any useful tips where to get good views?

After yesterday's racing at Brands, hopefully this week will be just as good.

All I will say is get there early. I usually get up on the bank to the left as you go in but it gets pretty packed out! I hope to be there Sat and Sun

I went last year (and was paid to be there too!!). Managed to stand at the exit of the pits on race day. Didn't see much, but just the sight and sounds of the bikes leaving the pits & paddock made up for that!

Best place to stand (photographic & viewing). We stood by the grandstand / control tower at the exit of Club, opposite the pit enterance.

**I used to get paid to take these silly pictures!!**

Another good place (and somewhere you may see an off), stand up near Cobb.

Have a good weekend to all that are going to Thruxton. I'll be annoying the DD racers at Brands this weekend
