Spooly may draw you a map but basically you enter down pit lane, stay on the left hand side, stop level with the start line and wait for a marshall to wave you across the track at the rear of the burnout area to drive around the far hairpin bend, then you do a U-turn to park where the officials have given us a section to park.

You go back the same way to have your race, and at the end of the 400, you can either turn right at the last corner and drive around the track back to the parking area (don't drive fast otherwise everyone gets in strife), or you can turn left and follow the return track to the timing booth to pick up your ticket. The only problem is that if you go to the timing booth after every run, you have to work your way down pit lane again and cross the start line, but on the other hand if you go back to the parking space after the finish line you miss out on your time ticket.

We used to either not go to the timing booth if we knew it was an average run, or get someone to stay there to pick up the tickets.
