After two seasons of nothing SEAT now have a stand, (run on their behalf by a third party company). They have 2 or 3 cars, a multi player racing game with prises and some merchandise, (there is also another stand that sells SEAT clothing). One of the people running the SEAT stand came over and spoke with us all at the SCN Hospitality unit at Donington, and said they should be around for the rest of the season.

Where is best for snapping?
I don't have one of those professional jobs but I like taking snaps of the cars.
The closest most unrestricted views for someone with a compact camera is probably Sunny out. I got some good snaps there a couple of years back with my SLR, but my neice took some equally good photo's with her little compact.
But i've not been back to Croft since, so i've no idea if the view is restrictive there now. The first corner and chicane are difficult because of all the catch fencing, unless you can find a spot where you can get close to it and pop the camera between a fence hole or something.
Overlooking the approach to the hairpin is fairly unrestricted too, if you can get a clear spot with no-one's heads in the way.
But beggars can't be choosers. Do your best and i'll use a couple of shots. We get PR from BTC Racing but no images.
Same goes for anyone else, take some snaps and we'll credit you if we use it.

Turner's car has failed its ride hight, he did have pole. No doubt he'll lose it now. Stil 13mins of the session left though.
Qualifying over. DT on pole with Jase in third. Flash splits the two in third. Giovanardi way down in 12th.
Weather for tomorrow ain't good according to www.uk.weather.com. Theirs a 70% chance of rain with a temperature of 13 degrees celcius but if you type in Darlington in the site the humidity chance is 96%.

Indeed. Say, since it is gonna rain I would like some quick advice.
Which jacket should I buy? Their an interactive, neoprene jacket for 55 which doesn't have a hood according to the pic on the SEATSportUK website but theirs the one which is a lot more expensive (£100), the interactive neoprene outer jacket which does seem to have a hood. Which should I buy? Because the jacket I bought last year is way too bulky.

Take nothing away from JP, he was laden with ballast. So 3rd is a great starting position for him too.
Let us not forget of course the Independent entries flying the flag for SEAT. Adam Jones in the Leon and BTC Racing in the Toledo's.
It is a really great 3-way battle between WSR's Colin Turkington, BMW Dealer Team UK's Mat Jackson, and Team Air Cool's Adam Jones in his Independent petrol Leon. Unfortunately Jackson is two places ahead of Jones in 7th and Turks is a whole five head in 4th.
Sadly at BTC Stuart Oliver will be starting last in 24th and Chris Stockton will start in 18th. Two spots ahead of local lad Aan Taylor in the Robertshaw Integra.

Well, looks like I get to meet a few members finally!
If there is no parking arranged where is the best place? I have nightmares about my car getting trashed while I'm watching my first BTCC event ever!
See you guys there!!!!!
