To the guys that know...

What is security like at these events for the carparks. I know it is usually park at your own risk but how big is that risk ???

Has the place got a good track record for theft or damage to cars in the carpark ???

Thanks in advance

Parking at the Z is in field behind fences (not quite trackside), there is security at all gates , but hey this is South Africa, so who knows?

:oops: Well spotted, I received it straight from Zwatkops via e-mail and posted it directly... so we will probably find their program will have the wrong date too.. :D

But yes we are talking THIS Saturday, 2nd Feb.
