No, we have marquees and a patio heater.Sitting under cover, being in amongst the banter is far better than being sat at home twiddling your thumbs because it's raining. Plus Pod's weather is often different to the rest of the UK's weather so there's still every chance of sun. I'll definitely be packing sun cream as per

Anything can happen tbh.

Also bear in mind the worst rain I've ever seen at '09, it was glorious the Sunday afternoon but a lot of people had left because it was bad in the morning.

Whatever happens it won't last all day and we'll manage the best we can if it does.

Only downside is the strip being closed but the rest of the show will go on.

Sorry but it's just not the same when it's raining...

Nobodys walking round looking at the cars and enjoying the strip action. Just all squeezed under shelters.

You can't beat a hot sunny day at a car show. It just makes the day.

I fully agree it's not as good a show when it rains but I can still pretty much guarantee having a better day at a wet Santa Pod than I'd have on a rainy day at home.

Anyway, we've booked sun so you're all worrying over nothing

Just be prepared, if its going to rain then make sure you have some heavy footwear on the books, nothing worse then a foot full of water. Take an umbrella, spare clothes (!) if you are camping.

Not to mention Corsa Sport will have its marquees up, patio heater (new for 2012) and CHAIRS, GLORIOUS CHAIRS.
