Yes you can bring a dog but you will have to camp in the dog friendly area and not allowed in the pits or stands while the racing is on. You can walk around the pits with the dog on a lead after racing is finished around 5pm

Look at it from another angle maybe Gary? You've been to numerous rallies abroad that will have cost a lot more, and been happy with doing that?

as Hal said you will ride all the way to Germany thrash your bike up the dragstrip as they do with risk of being so far away from home and blowing the bike up a possibility but wont do the same over here in UK

Quick question before I vote.

What riding gear will be needed to actually have "a go up the strip".

Is road going clobber OK or do you need race leathers etc.?
