Very enjoyable 3 days. Great weather, quiet campsite (Woodlands) and security were most unSillystone like (entering the circuit in a car club vehicle).

We spent a couple of hours touring each of the two pits/paddocks on Friday, starting with the Wing area. Worth wandering part of the Stowe circuit being used as an overflow paddock, as a certain orange monster was lurking there.
A few barriers in the Wing garages, I assume to deter the casual visitor, but there was always a walk around route if you really wanted to see cars close up. Or just ask.
A few of the multi prep teams outside the garages had barriers up but we were invited into several to take a close look at and take a snap or too.
Chatting to owner/drivers and being able to get up close to the cars is the best part of the event.

We spent most of the weekend at Luffield terrace watching the races, having a big screen close to was useful.
Loved the Group C display and demo and it was lovely to hear a few 90s F1 cars whizzing around, especially the Macca.
GT4 races were an excellent time to visit the car clubs on Saturday and go for food on the Sunday.

Food and drink was expensive but palatable.
