    What Racing/Motorsports Events are you planning to attend this year?

    I went to my first event last year at Donington to see the BTCC final round , now im looking to visit a lot more racing events this year.

    Would like to hear what any of you have planned, including dates and descriptions.

    I am hoping to go to Rally GB, as I am near it atm, but this may be my last year here, so i can't waste this chance. All i need is someone to go with.

    I have been meaning to go to rally GB at some point, but uni usually gets in the way, and it's a faff to get a good spot to watch from.

    i might get there eventually....

    How about we make it a HEXUS event? There's bound to be more people going. Maybe someone has been before and knows the good spots to be in? In any case it'll be cool to meet up, especially at such an event where you need a bit of a crowd around you to enjoy it.

    only bad thing about that is, its jam packed, so
    a) finding somebody is hard
    b) standing near them on a stage is nigh on impossible

    If theres any hope of making this a worthwhile trip then i think you can count me in.

    I dont want to drive for 2 hours to look at the back of some geezer's head though

    So no UK 24hour races?

    I heard there is a Nurburgring 24hour, is it annual?
