Ha ha Martin ....don't worry about any of those small issues, get yourself to zandvoort and we will all make you feel welcome even if you have got one of those evil lotus things.

The NH at Zandvoort is.

You won't get it in the hotel car park but there is a big overspill car park on the other side of the road, about 10 euros or so I think. Alternatively in years gone by we've been allowed to park overnight inside the circuit paddock. The circuit is so close its a 10 min walk back to the hotel.

 

Academie Bruges definitely not trailer friendly

I remember that. At around 11 we were started to worry on that car still tucked on the trailer.

Having never done an over-nighter from Harwich, are there any 'do's and/or don'ts' ie what's the best time to arrive at the port etc. tia chris

[MartinS]

Just be prepared for the bar to close way to early and then to be woken up hours too early by some annoying music. You'll be grumpier than normal that day!

Check in closes at 22:15, so base your journey around that.

Think I normally aim to get there for about 21:30 to give a margin.

We then spend 30 mins chatting in the on ramp queue.

Cabin key card is collected when you check in.

There is a little noise in the cabin (so earplugs if you are a light sleeper?) and it can get warm in there.

As Martin says, they wake everybody up in the morning over the tannoy. About an hour before arrival I believe.

We are usually the last passengers left in the bar when they shut it at around 1am.

[Sutol]

Thx Chris, that gives me a good idea, especially the earplugs bit.

[MartinS]

Thank god the weather people are all crap at their job and always get it wrong , as at the moment its looking like we'll need wellies for the whole trip!

Just an fyi in case you are leaving your trackday insurance to the last minute.

When I contacted CCI (now Footman James) they said Zandvoort was no longer FIA licensed so my request had to be referred to the senior underwriters to make sure it was ok, which thankfully it was.
