what, your title days silverdome, and your message says UK event????

FYI, at least one day of competition it aways rains and is cold in Detroit, camping would suck during that.

Mate, im British, we love being cold and wet!

Camping is good fun! Yes the UK event is held at Silverstone. It is the national race circuit.

why not go to www.formulastudent.com and check out the page about campsite facilities at the track.

There's a campsite located directly at the circuit. From there, it's just a 5 minute walk to the pit lane.

Last year, there was A LOT of water coming from above and below Wink but since most of the teams camp there, it also was a lot of fun. (Especially since our team had four rented Jeep Patriots and a bunch of crazy wannabe rally drivers.. Thank god for fully comprehenisve insurance Smile )

Basically, the best idea is always to ask "on which campside is the Delft truck going to be?"
