Most (all?) of them can be found via the BMMC website. If you click on the link for a region, then click on "circuits", and finally an individual circuit, you should find a link to the map on the circuit's page

Well, not a bad day out at Vale today.
Numbers were typically low as it was Friday, and our trainee either got lost or fancied the biccies more at another post It was a surprise to me to find the dreaded speed mob providing more numbers and entertainment than the F3 few. Some good inter-post team working - after a long push down the pit entry, it's great to see the cavalry coming out of pit lane to take over. Cheers guys! Also good to be beaten to the car by your PC bringing a bottle toward you Flag cover was very reassuring, but when the drivers have got to make their way past Woolley, Maggie & then Bob, they are jolly well going to be made to see that cloth |

I thought the Euro F3 series was pretty big, supporting DTM mostly? Either it's gone downhill rapidly or it's a different series. How many cars are there?

Hi all
I'm supposed to be in the pits tomorrow but I've had some bad news about a family member this evening & need to get up to York to say my last goodbyes Who should I contact to let them know I can't make it? Normally I would have emailed Penny but I guess its a bit too short notice to do that. Does she have a mobile I can text? Or is there someone else that I should contact? Sorry for daft questions but I get sign on details emailed to work & I've made a note of sign on time rather than printing the email off. I'll put the details in my phone book in future! |

Had a great day in the pit lane yesterday, met some great marshalls and thanks to all the guys making me feel really welcome in the bar afterward. Really need to line up to do both days next year!

A mixed week-end. CER and LMS were brilliant each in their own ways, the rest a waste of petrol and time. It really is about time this meeting put on a decent support package because it's never been any good. The meeting will still be my first tick next year but I can't help thinking there's a plot not quite found over the event. A very enjoyable day with the flag on Friday at Stowe out, Sat & Sun not so good at post 3 (Farm) which really doesn't seem to be in the right place, if needed at all for flagging purposes. No complaints, you understand, part of the process of setting up the new infrastructure and mentioned at the time to the relevant people. It also took an awful lot of finding with most of us having visited several nearby sections of track on Saturday! More than made up with excellent company and another trainee successfully completing his flag assessment. |

Many thanks for the cover on Friday Woolley, as we dealt with the stalled Speed(sic) car and again when I went out to retrieve the wheel another one lost.
Speed has been poor for a number of years and I agree entirely about the F3 as well. Sparsity of grids for low- to mid-ranking single seater series means they get completely swallowed on the full GP circuit. Perhaps time for the Euro and Brit versions of F3 to seriously talk merger? |

Well Vale In was certainly action packed on Saturday!!!
Had a brilliant day there and think I've found my new favourite post. Just couldn't get over the speed the cars were coming by on the pit lane entry. And as for the #23 crash? Well..... |

A very enjoyable Sat/Sun at Village. Had to deal with an FLM & a GTE Aston beached on the same "Humpback" kerb round the loop, neither of which could be shifted by 5 of us, and a broken down classic under the bridge down Wellington straight. Simon & myself had to run 1/4 of a mile to help push the car safe...Puffed out would be an understatement!
A big thanks to all the boys & girls @ Village, and a big thanks to Simon for lending me some ear defenders as i would have ended up totally deaf 1 hour into the 6 hr race |

Great to see so many people over the weekend and have lots of chats with you.
I was feeling quite bad on Thursday but so glad we stayed for the club evening. McNish was really entertaining! He was also on the Today programme this morning (recorded interview). When was the last time that Le Mans cars featured on the BBC? Hope to see you all at the 24Hrs. |

Thanks to all on Vale on Saturday & Sunday for your efforts especially when dealing with the #23 crash and fire that followed on Saturday, also to the Posts around us that came and backed us up with this incident, great team work between Posts.
The speed that the cars entered the new Pit Lane was impressive and when cars came in that I had not spotted I jumped. Thanks to those on Brooklands on Friday for a good day. A great weekend. Last edited by Roger Lovelock; 12 Sep 2011 at 16:39. Reason: Change of wording |

Excellent long weekend at Beckets Exit, watching and listening to everyone else's incidents. Thanks to my flaggers, IO and incident crew, who between them meant all I had to do was keep banging my chin on the armco every time I tried to use the phone Nice work guys.
