The last time I went there were hundreds of campers in what looked like two feilds either side of the road just before the entrance.

Im not competing but will be happy to a review on my return.
I dont really want to drive all that way and not have anywhere booked.
The web site as far as i can see doesnt have a link to any and ive just contacted them and they have only recommended a large site that costs a
fortune!

sorry dont know about camping, was a good day a couple of years ago though. however its a wee bit 1940s, a rigged up tanoy system that looks like it
was made with string and plastic cups, there weren't any tvs showing any other part of the track, found my self walking up and down the hill
trying to get the best view Some cool cars though. my mechanic and his dad race in class I. something called a JEDI

There's a nice site at Wolverley near Kidderminster. It's about 12 miles away and it's a Camping and Caravan site so it has all the
amenities.
yours, Pete
I went into the RSPCA office the other day. It was so small you could hardly swing a cat in there.

i would of thought there would be something closer... wolverly is a bit the wrong side of kiddy for shelsley, took me 30mins at least from kiddy.
do you have to camp, surely there would be a bnb in great whitley or even WORCs would do. but i have feeling you want to roll out of bed and look at
cars... get on the phone to shelsley MC?
