We do tend to get rather a lot of brats running around over here,but they look totally in-edible.

An American saying other peoples food is crap,how would they know with the usual chemical stuff served up at US circuits.As an aside has anyone noticed as a race the majority of them don't how to hold a knife and fork and they used to rule the world until the Russians woke up the other week( I am sure this bloke does).I have done those US circuits and its all the usual American stuff.So he doesn't like British food which is the base of all served in all those countries,I find nothing wrong with it.Philip Island ,Silverstone,Snet breakfasts no problem and I have a waste line to prove how good the stuff is

I haven't eaten circuit food since I've raced in FISC, because excellent hospitality is included in the entry fee.
Tavern Belly is a well-known problem at one high profile UK circuit, and I do my best to avoid it when I'm spectating there. |

As Alan Morgan reminds me at Angouleme the organisers give you a slap up lunch with as much wine as you can drink - immediately before the racing starts. It's the only way they can get you to tackle the hairpin sections at breakneck speed.

I reckon Snetterton food is very good,possibly a touch expensive but you ex pect that when you go racing.As an (ex ) chef and then a person involved in catering/refrigeration I can tell you that the cost, including materials ,cone ,electricity etc. of a ice cream is normally around 26p!
Lots of money tobe made if you have the right "site". Snett fan55 |

Just back from Colmar Burg running a Delta in Dutch Monoposto.Cant beleive i have missed this post as some of you know i have a passion for food.Sat night everyone put their little BBQ together and there was just so much food. Yum Yum.The Dutch lady that runs the series kept telling me that the Kebabs were home made just wondering perhaps they were not ment for me to of eaten." Feel a bit guilty, well only a little bit".Someone said about Mallory breakfast, yea had one of those last Wednesday i was chatting to Mike Jordon and he said the same thing great place to test and great breakfast.He also sat in the Galaxie and i think could be tempted into historics.My good freind Micheal De Graves has mentioned Spa BBQ thankyou i guess we will have the BBQ Thursday evening you are welcome but let me know as i call into the supermarket at Stavalot on the way.Alan Morgan is head chef as i will be completing my personal challenge running around the track.

Food at brands hatch and lydden is excellent! Brands hatch - Breakfast is great as are sausage and chips for lunch althougth i do think £1:60 for a bottle of coke (double what it is at tesco) and £3:70 for a cheeseburger is far too expensive!! Lydden - Best bacon rolls |

our general philosophy is we eat as well or better when racing away than at home.
the fact we can eat and drink better for less by doing it ourselves rather than buying anywhere we've ever been speaks volumes Petrus is better value than most circuit pet food reject produce |

Those of you at Oulton Gold Cup may have partaken of my mother-in-law's legendary "Feed the entire paddock" catering suite! Certainly there were 8 of us noshing including Chris Dinnage of Classic Team Lotus, and two weeks earlier she catered for the CSCC paddock as well! What a woman!
Otherwise, I find the vegetarian options for burgers are usually nicer than the meat-ones |

Iain, I think you should share your fitness diet for historic racing drivers wishing to go faster
