  • FCS 2017 - Meet point and info

    Main Convoy top show ground

    Thanks to the heads up from Oli:

    Retail park I'm sure has barriers on it. Sainsbury's car park is fairly big so that would be better.

    If anyone runs there car on V Power, here's a station just up the A52, cheapest V Power I've ever found.
    Could be: Borrowash Bypass, Derby DE72 3HN



    Derby East Hotel is 0.4 miles to:

    Meet Point
    DE21 6NZ
    Sainsbury's
    Wyvern Way
    Chaddesden,
    Derby
    DE21 6NZ

    Facilities here
    Sainsburys Supermarket - opens at 7am
    Cafe opens at 7:30am
    Sainsbury's Petrol Station - opens at 7am
    Jet Wash
    Free air and Water
    Vacuum

    Just over the way
    Costa - opens at 7am
    McDonald's - 24hrs

    So I think that ticks all the boxes!!

    Around 25 min drive to:

    FCS 20107
    Donington Park Circuit
    Donington Park
    Castle Donington
    Derby DE74 2RP

    Show ground opens at 8am. So should we say leave Sainsbury's car park at like 07:45?

    Should give people enough time to shop if they need, get some breakfast etc? Everything opens at 7, so that's 45mins max time to allow for everything.

    That time in the morning I very much doubt it will take the full 25 mins convoy. That and who likes getting up reeeally early?

    Stupid Ashby De La Zouch hotel being stupid far away. I'm either going to be proper grumpy, proper hungover or proper giddy. See you at the meet point then.

      We could meet there again, but the car park was barrier restricted and it was only the McDonalds there for supplies. Plus turning cars around was a faff.

      This is a bit of a way out, but it also ticks lots of boxes for things we people might need in on the day

      I've not planned it because it's near the hotel! Just as an easy to find, has lots of things on site

          Haha no I'm just blaming my own poor choice of hotel - still. I think that's a great meeting point!
