Absolutely. The day we went, the tickets weren't too expensive, all the staff we encountered were very friendly and you weren't charged extra to have a wander around the paddock. That was brilliant in itself! Dad got to have a chat with Mick Webb, I got to see all the cars at (relatively) close quarters and a quick trip through a garage and up the embankment and were were able to see a HQ being tested on the road circuit.
My family and I were down at Turn 3 for the NASCAR races (turn 2 for everything else) so we missed the two accidents at the end of the race (there was Leslie's and didn't Thomas have one as well?). I think the last one set up a three lap shootout to the finish between Dumsney, Jones and Jimmy Hensley. All in all, a good day was had by all!
