I'm giving it a miss this year. Last year was immense fun, but I don't think I can negotiate a day pass from the family this year!

My geography isn't that good, but I suspect Mallory Park may not be in Wales.

No snow forecast for Mallory for the next ten days on the website I use; a high of 7° & zero precipitation forecast for Christmas Day suggests that Boxing Day should be OK - better than last year, I suspect!

See you there!

Silly question time!

Where's sign-on? The paperwork doesn't say, or not that I can see and I've not been to mallory before!

Cheers

Enter the driveway at the circuit, follow it round, and the gate to the track should be opposite you (should be staffed by security). Drive on to the track, and head WD to the Esses. Turn left onto the short circuit and through the gate into the paddock. Angle right, downhill, past scrutineering to the white single story building. Breakfast is served here; eat heartily! After breakfast, come out of the cafe, and turn right, uphill to the multi-storey race control building. Sign-on is pretty much underneath that (sign says "race admin" if memory serves).

Sign on is usually in the cabin behind the mobile caterers, however, I would suggest that you Sign On and then Breakfast.

Sign on is actually in the Drivers Briefing room at the bottom of Race Control stairs. Apologies that this was not clear.

Usually for races at Mallory, yes, but for the Plum Pudding, it's 'usually' in race admin
