It will:
Be overcast and dull and moggy! Poles from: Piquet Rossiter Wins from: Piquet Rossiter The atmosphere will be: Sort of tense to see who gets pole and the start but then predictable! The hospitality will be: S h i t Non-existant Empty or full of everyone eating there sarnies!! Promo girls will be: Non-existant!!!!!!!!!!! (they have sense) Danny Watts: Won't be there Ernesto Viso will: Finish, i have faith! The best thing about Knockhill will be: Qualifying and the start! But im not going, considered going up but its too far! Amazing to say but only 138 people paided at croft to get in! Last edited by Pears; 10 May 2004 at 19:15. |

That's Wales... BTW for any of you coming up from down south, I hear there's some big delays due to roadworks on the Forth Road Bridge, it might be worth going via the Kincardine Bridge although they say thats falling down, not that I want to put you off.. |

Rain probably - though it has been quite shiny recently so you never know. Poles from: Rossiter Dirani Wins from: Rossiter Dirani The atmosphere will be: Exciting The hospitality will be: All of the above Promo girls will be: Scottish Gorgeous Sexy lovely and again SCOTTISH Danny Watts: Will be there but his car might not Ernesto Viso will: Crash The best thing about Knockhill will be: The racing If only 138 paid for Croft ( a stat I simply cannot believe there was more than 138 cars there, never mind people )I can pretty much gaurentee that more will pay for Knockhill. For a start its cheaper Oh and if ANYONE has the temerity to say "Its too far, they shouldn't go" look where I live <---- and I went to Croft as a bonus AND I'M STILL ****ED OFF AT no GT's. Its the British F3 championship, thank you, not the South/Middle of England one. Bella I'm sure we can arrange some highland hospitality for you (would help if I actually knew where I was going to stay saturday night :S) Oh and sage adviceon the Forth Road Bridge - avoid like the plague. Kincardine Bridge is fine or if you are really lost go to Stirling and take the backroads |

It's a well known fact that haggis have two legs shorter than the others so they can stand up straight on the side of windy, heather filled Scottish hillsides.
Might see if I can saw a bit off one of my legs so I can have the same effect at Knockhill – given last year's wind problem, and I'm not talking about the air in the driver's briefing... |

I'm not a local (obviously), but I heard on the radio that there were also big queues on on the Kincardine Bridge both yesterday and today, due to road works in Fife.
The bad stuff on the Forth Road Bridge is from 6pm Friday until 6am Monday, so that's handy... Are they trying to tell us something? :confused: |

30 min delay on the Kincardine Bridge according to Traffic Reports on the radio this morning. But thats during the week, so just set off 20 mins earlier than you normally would I say.
