    Last year the used tyres were given away so if you fancy a tyre from a formula one car as a coffee table with a difference get there early.

    :j Any exact details, like where and when? Surely the tires get used during the day, so how would those getting there early get tires?

    Thanks

    No - checked with Renault last year. Children don't need their own tickets. Can't remember if it was under-18s or under-16s but babies certainly don't need tickets.

    Not sure how much a young baby would be able to cope with though. Perhaps you'd enjoy it more if a kind friend could babysit for you! :D

    I'd be taking my three year old but we haven't got that far to drive, so it won't matter so much if we leave early. :)
    tbh i'm not into cars, dh & ds1 are. dh won't take ds1 on his own. i am planning on doing the funfair / market bits instead & baby usually sleeps as soon as pushchair moves so should be ok. if not we will have to leave & dh will have to lump it - should have taken ds1 on his own!! my babysitting quota is all used up for a long time into the future!
    Cleaning the house while children are growing is like shovelling snow when it's still snowing!

    Yep they do, I think Maccyroo means get there early after the racing has finished. Personally I thought it was hilarious when they were trying to drag the tyres through the mud and rain.........lol stuff that, I was happy with the ear plugs!! icon10.gif

    thank you. worked for me. not my sort of thing but dh is well pleased - he is obsessed with cars! just a quick question - is it suitable for children? ds1 loves watching motor racing on tele & has been to minimotos with dad but he will be 4 in july so i think he may be a bit young for donny. anyone know if kids are ok to go?


    my little boy was 4 when he went last year and he loved it....but loved the free bouncy castle even more! he didnt like the bridge across the A road from the carpark though as he doesnt like heights

    the wife also wanted to come....with the 3mth baby...never again....told her, didnt listen and she regretted coming, so did i

    will go again but with the son only

    nb. takes some earplugs, though you can buy them there and make use of the free renault espaces to the pitstop...saves little legs....dont forget to take waterproofs and a mat to sit on...wouldnt bother with chairs as you will be walking alot.
