Accommodation
If anyone is thinking of staying at the track there are usually a number of us who will be inside the facility when the gates are locked (seeing as we're not allowed to refer to it as camping).
For those who want something more substantial, there are a few good alternatives all within about 10 minutes of the track. Why not grab another team and book together?
Ring Jesmond about their villas at Wallsend or Macquarie Apartments at Cardiff on 02 4955 5888. Let them know you’re from TEKA and would like to book a room for that weekend.
