The whole weekend was awesome. It really shows how geared towards the fan it all is and how poor European series are in comparison. Staying in the campsite was also a new experience for me. Everyone was very friendly and welcoming.

I'm glad you were treated well and had a good time..Although I would have expected nothing less.

Access was very easy. Much better than something like F1. Theres a lot it could learn from NASCAR on how to look after fans.
