We were there last year and camped on the racetrack area. We found that although there had not been much rain in the area previously that the ground was still very soft. We were worried about getting stuck, but managed to get off OK.

With all the rain of late I think it will be worse this year, so choose your spot with care.

If you are on the racetrack and have not been before it is a steep walk up into town, but a nice town with a few good bars.

Thanks. Was there a few years ago so decide to try again.

We have got all terrain tyres so hoping not to get stuck, but normally someone will pull you out.

Thought there would some on here attending.
