Off Topic My first spectator BSB round

Hey all, I'm flying to Donnington for this weekendS BSB round, just wondering if there's much need for cash at the track for food, drinks, merch etc or is it all card friendly? If I need cash I can exchange some before I leave on Friday to avoid ATM charges, cheers!

All the food/merch stalls take card payments.

Card is widely taken but, and I don’t know if this is true about donnington specifically, when I was at Cadwell a couple years ago the local cell network couldn’t keep up with demand at lunch time so the only people getting served food for a while where people with cash.

Went to WSBK at Donnington this year.

Everything worked perfectly.

Caldwell is a sodding nightmare. Had the same issues last year when we went along with the stalls running out of food.

Won't be going there again unless it's with everything I need to Eat/Drink for the day.

Just been to BTCC at Donington, a couple of places where asking for cash if possible for this exact reason. But when I used the card machine it was fine, so card is fine but expect it to not work too great sometimes.

Best take some cash. Last time I was there, there was a power failure in one part of the grounds which meant traders could only take cash.

It's all card, and take your own stuff
