This may or may not be of use...

I was at snetterton today in inters. Heres a few tips re pit/paddocks

Mobile phone signal is shite

There is a canteen there. Toilets, showers.

Sign on was next to garage 1.....souvenir shop or similar. Briefing was at the canteen. If your out first, get kitted up as the briefing doesn't end much before 0900 hrs and that's when your track time starts......today it was fast, inters, novice.

3 sighting laps then into pit lane......form up at the pit exit...then your out straight away for the remainder of your 20 mins

There are garages there....i think about 25 in total. Dont stand around like a plonker waiting for them to open in the morning..........pull them up....they are free rolling shutters....get in there and nab a garage!

Each garage had only 2 sockets....so if you have 5 or 6 bikes in there your screwed unless you daisy chain the power. I plugged into my mates extension lead to get my juice...just make sure they dont turn it off at the socket if they are in another group and go on track

They have fuel....you need fuel.......it eats it......i done 2 tanks for 100 miles on track! (but i didnt get any as i came prepared)

Noise is db 102 static and i think 92 drive by. You can get your db tested after your first session....i think they said your good on track without it until 10 am. After 10 they check every wrist tag for briefing/group and check the sticker for noise test.......every session

Its a quick track. Fun track. Enjoy it  :moto:

I forgot to mention, MSV wouldn't let any cams out on track unless they were secured to the bike.....so no helmet cams, body worn cams!

Its MSV track policy not to let anyone out with cams etc that protrude from their person, and has been this way for the past year or so.

Maybe spend the money on fixing the bike properly first...
