Whereabouts do you guys head to watch the races from? I'll most likely be heading to the Campbell - Cobb bit, also referred to as the Complex, the big right/left S-bend before they disappear off into the countryside. You get to see some action there, plus there's normally a big screen showing the action around the rest of the lap.

Complex is good, take some binoculars as you can follow the action over on the fast parts in the distance.

I'll be driving up with my nephew this year but see you there Skippy. Not sure how he'd cope with the long ride up, long day there then the ride home for his first true pillion distance :-s

Skippy, I'll now be making my way a bit earlier bud, so no need for Cartgate. Have a good day out. :D
