BTW for any of you coming up from down south, I hear there's some big delays due to roadworks on the Forth Road Bridge, it might be worth going via the Kincardine Bridge although they say thats falling down, not that I want to put you off..

Rain probably - though it has been quite shiny recently so you never know.

Poles from:
Rossiter
Dirani

Wins from:
Rossiter
Dirani

The atmosphere will be:
Exciting

The hospitality will be:
All of the above

Promo girls will be:

Gorgeous
Sexy
lovely
and again SCOTTISH

Danny Watts:
Will be there but his car might not

Ernesto Viso will:
Crash

The best thing about Knockhill will be:
The racing

If only 138 paid for Croft ( a stat I simply cannot believe there was more than 138 cars there, never mind people )I can pretty much gaurentee that more will pay for Knockhill. For a start its cheaper

Oh and if ANYONE has the temerity to say "Its too far, they shouldn't go" look where I live <---- and I went to Croft as a bonus AND I'M STILL ****ED OFF AT no GT's. Its the British F3 championship, thank you, not the South/Middle of England one.


Bella I'm sure we can arrange some highland hospitality for you (would help if I actually knew where I was going to stay saturday night :S)

Oh and sage adviceon the Forth Road Bridge - avoid like the plague. Kincardine Bridge is fine or if you are really lost go to Stirling and take the backroads

It's a well known fact that haggis have two legs shorter than the others so they can stand up straight on the side of windy, heather filled Scottish hillsides.

Might see if I can saw a bit off one of my legs so I can have the same effect at Knockhill – given last year's wind problem, and I'm not talking about the air in the driver's briefing...

coming from the M74 you go on to the M73 as usual but instead of turning onto the M8 continue on the M73 until it ends at the A80 - head towards Stirling and the A80 becomes the M80 and the M876 to the Kincardine Bridge is the first turn off the M80.

or look at this...

I'm not a local (obviously), but I heard on the radio that there were also big queues on on the Kincardine Bridge both yesterday and today, due to road works in Fife.

The bad stuff on the Forth Road Bridge is from 6pm Friday until 6am Monday, so that's handy...

Are they trying to tell us something? :confused:

30 min delay on the Kincardine Bridge according to Traffic Reports on the radio this morning. But thats during the week, so just set off 20 mins earlier than you normally would I say.
