I only manage to get down there once a year in July. I've seen sudden blinding fog, had several 12hour rain storm drubbings, a couple of blistering "surface of Mars" type hot sunnys, and one where all of the above happened in one day. Oh and a hail storm.
I haven't seen snow in July down there yet, so I suggest you pack an air conditioner, snow chains, several buckets and brollies. Oh and a good quality nose clip in case you get caught short and have to use the thunderboxes. For all that, I do genuinely love the place and going down there is always one of the highlights of my year |

Can anyone confirm when gates open tomorrow?
The Wiscombe website says 10am, but I'm sure that must be wrong? Looking at the programmes for 2000-2003 when I last went, practice started at 8:45am. Cheers for any advice! |

I turned up yeaterday bang on ten and cars were already running. (bit of a washout btw)... some beautiful cars there though. I took the old man for a look after he bought home a leaflet about Wiscombe. The grounds are absoloutely beautiful! Although I'm more into my circuit racing, I caught a hillclimb when I was working in Geurnsey in '03 and thought that some of the machinery was very impressive. Glad we went, even if it was a litle soggy.
