Hi All
A few of us thinking of coming over from the isle of wight next weekend but wondered what the situation was with power! Is there a power supply we can hook up to; if not, are we allowed to run a generator.
Just trying to squeeze a few of us into cars and didn't to bring a milkfloat load of batteries with us.

There is electricity at the cabins now but it's really only for race control. If your stuck then I wouldn't have thought it would be a big deal to use it once. But really you will need to sort out some form of 12v battery or if you wanted you could use your own car. Failing that most guys have large capacity leisure batteries and would probably allow you to piggy back mate.

Generators are fine, but you will need a long extension cable as we usually put them in the far left corner of the track. or behind race control (bottom left corner). or park infront of the bank and put it infront of your car... its just something to keep the noise down . im not there next weekend im racing away, but there should be others able to help out.
