I'm off to Chester races this Saturday. Love the races as it's a good day/night out.
Weather isn't looking up to much at the moment

Awesome 
I went to the FoS in 2003, and it was the best weekend i've ever had. Possibly even better than TITP.
So many cars, and so much to see.
It was also a great weekend as my cousin was competing, and he set the fastest time of the whole weekend. Even beating all of the F1 drivers in their F1 cars.
I also had a VIP pass so i could get into the paddock where I met JayK, Coulthard & Muray Walker so it was extra special 
I'd love to go again, but its such a journey down to chicester.
£98 for 2 tickets seems quite cheap. Is that just one day?

The mix of cars you see on the roads is amazing. Ive never been officially but we ride the bikes up there and chill out drinking beer watching the cars. Best way is to take tents and camp in one of the surrounding car parks, if you want to know where they are just say. If you camp up there you miss all the traffic and can walk there
Also need any local knowledge i can tell you what you need to know

Even the carpark at Goodwood is amazing. I spent a good half an hour looking round that before i went into the main area.
I've just been watching some videos on youtube, and i'm really jealous. I want to go again

Oh yeah, sorry, when I said I got into the paddock with the VIP pass, I meant the VIP paddock.
Although, theres nothing more to see there other than famous people, with free champagne and strawberrys.
You get into the normal paddock with the normal tickets, and you can get right up to all the cars on display, and you can even sit in a few.

The actual racing drivers do as I appreciate how skillfull some of them really are.
Next weekend, ace. What day you going James?
