I can confirm the above is the current plan. Hadn't posted it as I was asked not to by the organisers until it was all confirmed.

may look at trailering up and spend most the day on track
I might well be able to make this as it's closer. Depends if it clashes with work but I'll certainly attempt to make it!

Cockblocking me and Kent again?
Donnington should be really good, if Pugfest is the same weekend as this years, FCS and Pugfest will be two weekends in a row

I thought you were both wingmanning me pmsl
Havent been too donnington since FCS10 i believe! I will definitely be there as will my burning bin
It's a really refreshing change for organisers to realise not everyone lives in the South West. Will enjoy the event doubly knowing I'm only 40 minutes from home
I think its a good move. It had started to get a bit samey every year at castle combe so a different venue should fresh it up a bit. Bit more of a drive for me but it is certainly more central for everyone which is a good thing. I'm looking forward to it.
Definitely a good move on there behalf as said if you have the Sunday chill day ticket as well you can also go into vag tuner live, i reckon there will be quite a few more staying Sunday now as essentially they will get two shows
its a welcome move for me as well. Track is different, the show will be less spread out which is nice. I remember going there years ago and it was a good day out. Only issue will be camping. Will have to see what they come up with otherwise I imagine we will book a field somewhere as a club and then drive down in the morning!

Was about to say - good times this! This was often better than the show - slightly more relaxed rules and the morning drive across, being woken by those damn DERVs
does anyone know where we previously stayed at rockingham and donnington? old threads must be up on here or pugnet somewhere

Was thinking the same, any local members that could scope the joint out for us?
