I sat through the traffic on both weds and thurs last year (was too cold on weds night so went home for warmer gear) and it was a bit lighter on weds but you should expect to be stuck in shit traffic whenever you go

Its about 40 odd minutes to get in to the site once you hit the traffic in that suburban bit on the way in about 2 miles from the site. I'd be f**king fuming if I lived near there having to wait in that

Meh, go out selling beers to the people in the cars or charging them to use your bog, you'd make a mint =)

Last year we got there about 1.30pm and there was zero traffic jams. straight in. the year before i went on the thurs and it was horrendous

it's usually pretty bad from that a road before the roundabout. (if my memory serves me right anyway)
either way there's gonna be traffic but it's always a laugh.

Strange 'cause I drove up to the site last year on the Wednesday to get a ticket from the box office and drove in and out with barely any traffic at all. I would say I got there between 7 & 8pm because it was after work.
