hello mate,, depending on what type of meeting it is it usually pays you to get there for about 8 to half past because if it is a popular meet or a big show the queues can last for hours just to get to the gates, thats with out parking. most of the time racing starts at 10 am and goes on till dusk, unless it rains. i have sat there all day and only seen two cars go down the strip due to bad weather (they do have track dryers). if its run what you brung day its twelve quid for three passes, classes range from street, super street, super gas, funny cars,nitro and blown all the way up to the top fuel rails (magic!!!!!!). different classes run at different meets but i think r.w.y.b days are best, if you like to have a go yourself. your car must be road legal and have no fluid leaks etc. hope this has been some help ,if not contact santa pod on 01234 782828.. hope you enjoy it mate, ive been going since i was a nipper, not a lot of choice when you old man runs a super gas ford pop!!! oops sorry for swearing!!!!!
