Was looking for some advice, first time driving to Cardiff. wont be arriving until 6 whats the best thing to do? is park and ride available all night ? any help much appreciated

there are a few jawa 250cc engines being used on the grasstrack scene over here. Its an ideal opportunity for the youth classes as it states in the acu handbook that a 250 four stroke engine can be used with the 125 intermediate class (mostly made up of 2 strokes). however I competed in a grasstrack at danebury last weekend and there was a 250cc jawa bike there. very quick out of the gate in the early heats but as the day progressed and the track became more grippy it seemed to struggle.

my 3rd gp and I do think it was better than the last two. Arrived in cardiff about 4 with two friends on the train. got some food and air horns and waited for the gates to open. found our seats got a few beers down our knecks and watched the stars of the future race. then the swedish lot came on, to young to remeber them!!. so went and got more alcohol and my 5th trip to the toilet. 6.55 i decided to roll up to my seat and the excitement really hit me. had a soar throat by the end of race 1!!!. it was strange as we were sitting in an air horn free zone, (which i didint know about) and still loads of people myself included were using air horns despite the fact all the old boys and girls were giving everyone evil looks.air horn free zone is rubbish you need an air horn to be part of the atmosphere. Got back to the hotel at about 2 am. after a train from cardiff to bridgend with some very funny welsh boys singing very random songs. good night very sad when it all had to come to an end.

maybe a few more rides, for the riders to get used to the track a bit more.

I dont think lindback will win - look at him in the swc final he was a bag of nerves and rode below par. i think its zagar!!.

boy cardiff thatw as a hot day, any 1 see the children in the water fountian ??
