Default Access to Brands Hatch

I'm going to Brands next week but have a query that maybe you lovely chaps (or chapesses) could answer.

Can you get to the paddock/pits from the outside while the circuit is open? Is there an access tunnel or bridge? Also, is there a pedestrian footbridge or tunnel?

As Bob says, tunnel to the paddock, and it's fantastic for driving through with a loud exhaust, nearly as good as the one at goodwood

Shell garage, hmm, have a look at this 10 mile radius of BH.

Fuel on site is quite probably rather expensive, You might want to post up on the EVO forums and ask about it, they might have more info.

Failing that, there must be a BP nearby. I know's there's an Esso, which may have to do as it's 2 miles away only. Only got a small tank in the westie so got the feeling I'll need a refuelling halfway through the day. Hey at £10/£15 a fill up I'm not complaining

There used to be a BP but it closed down, I think texaco is the closest(No Good I know)

Wish I was in the UK... Would like to have gone to that...
