How the day runs
Your car is at the door of The Adria before you come down. Choose an executive saloon for two or three of you. Leaving The Adria, the car picks up the A4 and keeps to the main roads. For drop-off, the organisers' own rules apply. Pre-booked drop off and pick up on Racecourse Road beside the East Entrance; the rank is directly outside the East Entrance. Free on-site parking on all racedays; enter via Hambridge Road (RG14 7PN) from the M4 or Racecourse Road (RG14 7GL) from the A339. All day the car stays on hand; a message brings it round. The return to The Adria takes about an hour and 7 minutes, plus whatever the car parks need to empty.
