Nice one! Very jealous - itching to see this place in the flesh and it always produces good racing. The historic saloons they usually have on the bill look almost as good as the BTCC action.

May see you there if it doesn't work out too pricey - I guess Edinburgh's a good place to stay, make a night of it!

Tickets are only £25 if bought in advance or £30 on the day. Good value in my eyes. Got an early start though gonna have to leave by 7:30ish, 2 hour drive for me.

Only racing ive been to see is banger racing so this will be different (although it is Touring cars)

That's me tickets ordered. Can't wait now.

Expect sunburn or to be weather beaten. Everyone always ends up red no matter what. Knockhill has a climate all of its own that nobody actually understands.

Pick the right place to stand, I would advise the top of Seat Curve at the end of the straight and you can see the cars for most of the lap except half the straight to the hairpin, the hairpin and the exit up to over the brow. However there should be a big screen right ahead with the action from the TV.

Last year was very good. Most of the usual support races although the Clios either don't come up or are often poorly attended.

The Scottish historic race last year was brilliant. Far more cars than travelled down south a few weeks back.

Edinburgh city centre is only 20-25 miles from the circuit. Or you could try camping at the track.
