not bad! i was there last sunday for some wedding show, but the building that we were in looked over the whole race track, plus the stand we were at was on the top floor right in front of the window!! smileys/smiley4.gif PLUS they had racing going on all day so i was rather occupied by that! smileys/smiley17.gif was quality, had the super fast gokarts and some motorbikes going round all day! had three crashes happen right in frotn of the building where the show was being held! 2 bikers got taken away in an ambulance on a spinal board - the first one rolled through the gravel pit and landed on his neck and wa all curled up. too kem abpout 20 mins before they put him on the spinal board, and the the second guy fell off on the inside of the corner and roled across the track before stopping right on the side of the track lying face down.
have got pictures of the whole day on my phone but my bloody dongle thingy aint working for some reason (i can send stuff from my pc to my phone but not fro my phone to my pv!! smileys/sad.gif ) so if i can get it working will get pics up

from where i was when i was there, it looks like you cud see the whole track except the hairpin after paddock hill bend. but i think you can see everything from where the public stands are.
the buildign that i was in was the full glass building that is on your right as you first come in through the gates. was a brillaint day, you shud have a godo time and def take a camera

I use to go there all the time with my Dad, but he don't live with us anymore!

Last thing I did there was the Rally Experience and that was fucking brilliant.
