me thinks there are going to be a lot of hungover people who stayed at the hotel Friday night.

this way , I get to drive down to Folkestone in the peace of the late evening, clear roads, check-in, get loaded without the hassle of ramps, grab some kip, then a nice cool morning drive empty roads, and watch the sunset, grab some more kip, then sign on for the trackday

sunday chill out

what ever gives you that idea? we are able to do quiet nights you know! :P

Your way sounds nice, with peaceful roads and all that but it's not an option for me, it'll take me 5 hours to drive to folkestone. I don't want to do all that driving and then be up all night.

where you going to get your kip? in the car?

For me the best way, is go out Friday afternoon, 1-2ish. You'll then get there early eve. Try and have a sensible night, have a good track day, go out that night and have as good a time as you can in Frnace (bloody hard as the bars are generally crap, and they all go to bed at 11), then have a nice slow start Sunday, with relaxed (spirited) drive back Sunday for a crossing 4 ish.
